When she marries Kevin, who shares her wanderlust, together, they move their family to Saudi Arabia and live there for five years. Her story takes us from her early years through her Peace Corps experience during its formative years with yet another twist. It was the social revolution of the 1960’s that enabled Kay to exit this environment to explore places she had only read or heard about. A long distance telephone call was a big deal! Television sets displayed only three channels. Reared in a small town in western Pennsylvania, Kay’s story begins there in the 1950s during simpler times. Nonetheless, Kay is determined to follow her dreams, to risk and explore this big world full of mystery. Explaining further that her first full-time job is in a red light district in Colombia, South America, was impossible. KAY HAD ALREADY LEFT her family and friends speechless when she departed for Peace Corps training. Books published by Peace Corps Writers 2013
