From England, to South Korea, to Tennessee, it’s been a year full of adventures, counting down until we see each other again and a whole lot of FaceTime calls. Long distance is challenging, but this guy somehow makes it the easiest thing I’ve ever done. @nicklucas92

This tap supplies water to about 15 households in my village. And for the fourth day in a row, there’s no water. Adapting to life in a rural village is hard in a lot of ways, but learning to cope with water scarcity and its far-reaching impacts has, by far, been the hardest. Check out my new blog post about how water scarcity impacts my day-to-day life in village (link in bio) #nepal #water #climatechange

The cute house I lived in for 48 hours before being placed on medical hold. Not pictured: the bed bugs. Needless to say, things definitely haven’t gone as planned here in Doti. Thanks to a bed bug infestation, I’ve been stuck in the district capital the past two weeks in limbo, unable to return to my village. However, things are finally starting to look up and I’m hoping to get the fresh start I need soon. If you want to know the full story, you can read my new blog post (link in bio). #peacecorps
