As a Peace Corps Volunteer, I spend my service learning about my community and the local culture, while helping to represent my home country and our culture. One part of my job is to teach life skills to kids in sports, while another part of my job is to integrate within my community and learn to speak the local languages of Spanish and Kriol. By speaking Spanish with my host family and around town, as well as attending cultural events, I learn about the different cultures of Belize. The people, the food, the music, and so much more are what make my time here so important. Many of the events that I volunteer at allow me to build relationships with those around me, and teach me many new skills that I can't wait to share with others.
