I always wanted to join Peace Corp, I've thought about joining AmeriCorp first long time ago. You don't have to have a college degree to get in AmeriCorp and once you get in and you'll probably have better chance to get in Peace Corp in the future. It'll be one of a hell experience ever happened in your life!
I've met a long time Peace Corp member thru warwithgoody (member of this forum). She lived in Africa with her husband and family, she had shown me some of pictures and stuffs she brought from Africa. I can't imagine what's like being there. It's something you can tell a great story to your grand children.
