For the Love of Life… Go Travel! December 18, 2014. Many volunteers in Uganda have a unique experience specific to their site and their sector. But, mostly we all encounter similarly strange scenarios in the field. Check out this very realistic and funny comic created by a Returned PCV from the health sector. Yep, this sums it up. Shout out to Emily Cobbs… Hope you’re enjoying life back in Amerika’. Comic about PCV in Uganda. FELLOW UGANDANS, WE DESERVE BETTER BECAUSE SOMEWHERE ELSE…. September 3rd, 2016.

Again, she half-points and pauses. I haven’t made it. Yet I um. I don’t know. She states slowly, now more amused than perplexed. Ehhh but you’v...
