MalawiThe Warm Heart of Africa A Returned Peace Corps Volunteer Kirk Longstein 2008 - 2010
What is Peace Corps? Learning, sharing and exchanging cultural values of America with Malawians  Exchanging  technical knowledge  with host country nationals Learning, Sharing and exchanging cultural values of Malawians with Americans Why did you join? Be  the Change you want to see in the world! Curiosity of something I had only heard about Adventure!!
Where is Malawi?
“What’s Malawi Like?” Living in the village…. ….We wake up, get water and start cooking  tea
Most days are full of chores…   ……Pounding maize, cooking Nsima,    and always working in the  garden
We Always love to play games! Playing Bao, practicing soccer, 	Singing  and dancing… 		 …running and jumping
For children, most of the days were spent at school…. …Books, Friends and Sports 	 yet most children do not finish middle school.
…there is always time to chat… …Anytime of day, we chat about  	the weather & crops… 		 politics , religion & life…
Before the day was over… I always had a new friend.
How did you “Chat?” Chichewa is a Bantu language  spoken in Zambia & Malawi MuliBwanji? Nanga Ine, Ndilibwino. Zikomo Ndatakozakubwerakwanu Kufotazkozera zamoyowatu ku Malawi
What did people do for work? Along the lake shore 	 people relied on fish for food and for sale. …But you would have a hard time 	 finding a Malawian that doesn’t farm.
What did you Eat? Twice a day, everyday…. Nsimandindiwo
Cultural Dances The Gule wan Kulu are Chewa dancers invoked by spirits of the  graveyard… 	Their dance expresses socially significant people , places and events  The Chitimeka are Tonga woman  celebrating the elegance  and grace of womanhood.
Public Transport A planed trip to town meant cold drinks and good food 		…But  was it worth it? FACT: The most dangerous place in Malawi 	 …the tarmac roads.
My House
What do people ask about America? What type of food do you eat? What do you do for fun? What do people do for work? How many are in your family? Where do you pray?
What is Community Based Natural Resource Management? Providing the incentives to conservation  	by exposing people to creative uses 		 of resources in their own back yards.
Community Health services As Peace Corps Volunteers we all have a responsibility 			 to educate towards public Health FACT: Malaria kills more people in Malawi than  HIV/AIDS FACT:  A better  nutritional diet can prevent most common illness
Zaqwana! My experiences in Malawi 	 were filled with beautiful places  				and beautiful people. 27months was not long enough.  		 If I had the opportunity, I would do it again.
