Peace Corps Kyrgyzstan: no strings attached
http://seanincentralasia.blogspot.com/2014/12/you-can-have-this-money-just-one.html
Monday, December 1, 2014. You Can Have This Money, Just One (Thousand) Condition(s). You must give it all away. Standing with two trainers and a participant from the Youth Committee Training. The lower the percentage, the higher the likelihood I would donate. There is this mentality when giving money- we want the money to go toward the project, not into the pockets of those running the project. We don’t want our money going into the pockets of Bubumairam and Guljash…right? Wrong Of course I do! Great ref...

Cat Lady in Kyrgyzstan: October 2013
http://catladyinkyrgyzstan.blogspot.com/2013_10_01_archive.html
Thursday, October 31, 2013. In which I meet the other American in the area. July 9, 2013. Again we were crammed into a van filled with all sorts of building supplies, electrical gear, and cooking supplies. I should also mention that this can is in a permanent hot-wire status; the wiring has been pulled out of the original ignition and routed into a pseudo-ignition contraption. To start the van, one must insert a flat-head screwdriver into this contraption and twist it like a key. Brilliant! That night, a...

March 27, 2015. 10 things I picked up in country that my American mother would be ashamed of. My personal hygiene has gone down the drain. I bathe (maybe) once a week and when I do it is from a bucket that contains as many rusty flakes of degrading bucket as it does hot water. I frequently use febreeze and wet wipes as a hygiene substitute. Bodily functio...

Peace Corps Kyrgyzstan: This Past Year
http://seanincentralasia.blogspot.com/2014/12/this-past-year.html
Sunday, December 21, 2014. When I wrote the post “ Projects to start strong this new year. 8221; I intended to follow it up with this post, detailing the successes and failures of those projects. What I didn’t intend was for the year to pass so quickly. With only six months left on my contract (out of 27), it seems my time in Kyrgyzstan will be over before I know it. 1 Help Establish a Microcredit Agency within the NGO Epkin. Also, notice how I just added youth in there in that last sentence? Not complet...

Peace Corps Kyrgyzstan: Тынч Means Peace, it also means Quiet
http://seanincentralasia.blogspot.com/2014/07/means-peace-it-also-means-quiet.html
Wednesday, July 30, 2014. Тынч Means Peace, it also means Quiet. Read on to hear the struggle of this fool. Is the Kyrgyz word for peace. It also means quiet. I am a fan of peace, but in this instant I cannot be quiet. Too many hearts are screaming inside bodies with mouths sewn closed. You may not hear the noise, but quiet it is not. Why is bride kidnapping so harmful? Is it really much worse than arranged marriages? Isn’t it just a different cultural understanding? It may seem irrational, but men suffe...

Peace Corps Kyrgyzstan: Projects to Start Strong this New Year
http://seanincentralasia.blogspot.com/2013/12/projects-to-start-strong-this-new-year.html
Wednesday, December 11, 2013. Projects to Start Strong this New Year. The New Year, is coming. My host niece Ossil (some contend her name is spelled Asel in Latin script, but it sounds like Fossil without the F so I submit my way is better, you be the judge) and I prepared for the momentous occasion by making origami decorations and various other crafts all day long. We’ll pick up where we started tomorrow, also we’re going to make ribbon cookies. Ossil decorating some snowmen. This is our latest logo.
