Chaa Thai is a podcast spilling the tea on Peace Corps volunteer life in Thailand! Each episode, hosts Dano Nissen and Morgan Shupsky interview a current Peace Corps volunteer in Thailand and do a deep dive on their experience at their host site. The tea is that there are as many examples of what service is like for a volunteer in Thailand as there are volunteers — join us as we get a taste!
We’re catching up on some of the latest episodes of Chaa Thai!
Episode 23 has us hearing from the ones who love and support us all the way from back home in America – our Peace Corps parents! Bradford, Morgan, and Dano’s parents come on the pod to talk about their worries sending off their children to live across the world, the funniest stories they’ve heard, their questions about the Peace Corps volunteer experience, and, of course, all of their most embarrassing stories about their kids. We love our Peace Corps parents and all the care packages they send us!
In Episode 24, we’ve met his wife, we’ve met his dad, and now we finally have…Bradford!
Bradford is a singer, aspiring margarita-making pro, writer, president, and Peace Corps volunteer. He teaches English in Isaan and shares his service experience with his wife, the lovely Cadi Duncan. We talk about Bradford’s involvement with Peace Corps beyond teaching, his experience at school compared his expectations, and what it’s like to live in his community as a part of a couple. How many times do you think they get asked when they’re going to have a baby every day??
