Peace Corps

I know, and I love knowing people are out there helping. Especially since I know the whole point is a "helping hand not a hand-out" type deal -- they set communities up for success.

I could never do it overseas though -- I'd have to be an Americorps girl!

Bumping this because I want to apply for the Peace Corps, wondering if any GCer's have anything else to say about it, experiences, thoughts, etc.

My only concern is some credit card debt that I haven't gotten a handle on yet...I'm afraid they won't take me, I saw what lionlove had posted about taking a pretty high percentage, but still wondering if anyone had thoughts on this as well?
