After graduating from James Madison University (the best school ever), I ultimately decided I wanted to join the Peace Corps. Honing my spanish language skills, living abroad, working in the health field, and meeting incredible people were just a couple reasons PC appealed to me. I was hoping to serve in a country where I had never been before, so I was really excited to find I would be going to Nicaragua. I will be working as a Community Health Promoter in conjunction with the Nicaraguan Health Ministry. More details on the job to come...
This past summer I was in Honduras and had an amazing time so I figured Nicaragua, which borders Honduras, would be just as impressive. I hope that within the next 2 years I will receive tons of letters and hopefully visits because I am going to miss you all so much. I can't wait for the ride to begin...
About Me
- Megan A Mahoney
- Volunteering and traveling are two of my favorite hobbies. I am always looking for a way to do these simultaneously which has lead me to serve in Nicaragua as a Peace Corps volunteer. Hopefully this will lead me down the path to nursing. Oh, and I love ketchup (do they have Heinz in Nicaragua?)
