Great post! I had a lot of conflicting emotions when I left my projects in Guyana, especially the one that stopped as soon as I hopped on the plane because I was the link to funding. I also thought I’d be back soon after – but I still haven’t gone to Guyana yet and that was five years ago. What I’ve done to stay connected to the community is to donate to a nonprofit that my fellow Returned Peace Corps Volunteers started. It feels a bit removed – I’d rather be there – but it’s something that continually reminds me of how special that country is and how much there still is to do.
