Two Years in Photos


I completed my Peace Corps service several months ago. But after finally sorting through 2 years of photos, I would like to dedicate a final blog post to the people who invited me into their lives and shared this unforgettable journey with me. To my Peace Corps community, I could not have chosen a more incredible, talented, and supportive family. Thank you for giving me the strength to get through the difficult moments and reminding me to cherish the little things. And to my Gambian family and friends, I am honored to have lived and worked alongside you. Thank you for teaching me the value of patience, the strength of community, and the true meaning of wealth. I am forever indebted to your kindness. Although I cannot begin to put my memories into words, I hope these photos offer a glimpse into the simple beauty of the people and country I hold close to my heart. 

Peace and love, Nichole (Awa/Aja/Aminata)
