I’m so upset… Application Process

I have severe food allergies but have managed my entire life without problems. Are there really other countries I could go to?

I didn't get my first choice either– which was for the better. I'm in a different region of the world than I wanted but I love where I am now! Keep your head up, and your options open. Try not to go into any place with too many expectations, you will have a Peace Corps experience wherever you go :)

I didn't even get my third choice - but it was all for the best.
