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)
