Chaa Thai is a podcast spilling the tea on Peace Corps volunteer life in Thailand! Each episode, hosts Alyssa Strong and Lilly Hromadka 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!
It’s the first guest! Or is he just a new co-host… interviewing himself? Lilly and Alyssa are complimented this week by Farmer Jo, a prolific rice cultivator from Uthai Thani province. Okay just kidding, Joseph is a fellow TESS volunteer, and he’s only spilling the tea, not taking over, but he is serving in Uthai Thani!
This is Joseph’s second time living and teaching in Thailand, and we hear about the differences between teaching for a private company and the Peace Corps, as well as what he was up to in the years in between. He tells us about his life at one of the most rural placements in our cohort, how his integration is going, and new insights he’s gained through his work here. Join us for all this and more!
