| Publisher Description: Whispers of Honduras: A Peace Corps Experience is a Peace Corps Volunteer (PCV) account of living in Olancho, Honduras from September 1997-December 1999. Manto was a quiet, little mountain town surrounded by pine-forested hills then. As a PCV, I was treated well, laughed a lot, learned to slow down, and developed a deeper understanding of international relations, environmental protection, poverty, and friendship, among countless other words that could be listed here. The pages of the book depict small parts of me that serve as experiences not only of my life in Olancho, but also other areas of Honduras during my time as a PCV. The sections before "Return to Hondo" were written while as a PCV and the chapters after it were written during a return trip in December 2007/January 2008. With that, I give you words and photos that may illuminate my understanding of Honduras. |
