My thesis

As some of you might know, I've spent the past 2 years studying international sustainable tourism for my graduate degree. My focus was the Kyrgyz tourism group CBT Kochkor. The study is a program evaluation of their progress over the past 13 years with recommendations on how they can improve. I'll be posting chapters from my thesis for the next month as I finish my final revisions. Go to http://mytourismstudies.blogspot.com/ to check it out.

Thank you to everyone who read and commented on my blog during 2005-2007. Your encouragement helped me continue to cronicle my experiences in Kyrgyzstan. There will no longer be any posts on this blog. But the good news is, I will be returning to Kochkor this summer.

I've been fortunate enough to get funding to return for my graduate research into the Community Based Tourism of Kyrgyzstan.

If nothing is there yet, be patient. FYI- it will be research based writing and at times dry. You were warned.

The Last Post

We're done with our Peace Corps service and are thankful to be home once again. We will always remember our experiences and the friends we made. We love and miss you all! Instead of writing something, here's a little slide show of our trip back from Kyrgyzstan to the States. The first set of photos are from our trip in Moldova with our friends Scott & Leslie. Then we move to Romania and then London. Finishes in Washington D.C.

Fin.
