Getting it

As a Peace Corps Volunteer, it can be frustrating to have this incredibly intense experience that you want to share with everybody at home but that is maddeningly difficult to capture in any amount of blog posts or pictures.

It doesn't help that people at home tend to ask how it was but glaze over after the first 15 seconds of the answer.

As challenging as it was to spend the past three months away from Trevor, I'm glad that he at least got to visit. He didn't get the whole experience, but at least he's sat in the kitchen with my host family, walked Tbilisi's streets, sampled khatchapuri and homemade wine--and even slept in the race car. On some level now, he gets it.
