Oh the places you will go...

So today I made a pretty big life decision for myself. If you haven't picked up on it already I love to travel and I love to write. Engulfing myself in cultures much different from my own has become a passion that I never in my wildest dreams expected to be able to fulfill, especially at the age of 22.

I'm lucky to have already visited so many wonderful countries but I don't plan on stopping. I've been job searching these past several months and very few career opportunities have sparked my interest until today, when I decided I was going to apply to be a volunteer in the Peace Corps.

This application process is no joke. I knew it would take some time and pose to be difficult, but on average this application takes people two weeks to finish. I spent a majority of my day filling out this application and I'm about halfway through. It got to the point where I couldn't stand to even be near my computer, so I've decided to take a breather.

I'm super excited about this possible opportunity, even though I know the acceptance rate seems to be low.

If anyone has any pointers (or experience) with this application PLEASE don't hesitate to comment below! I'd love to hear anything and everything you all have to offer.

Keep your fingers crossed for me!
