At the age of 34, Amy McGarry quit her job teaching high school to fulfill a life-long dream of joining the Peace Corps. All the research and training in the world couldn't prepare her for the challenges of living as a farang (foreigner) in rural northeast Thailand. From learning to use "squat" toilets to battling rabid dogs, Amy details her experiences with plenty of humor and self-deprecation. Will the rewards outweigh the challenges? Will the lizards living in her home send her running to the nearest airplane headed home? Will she get used to eating crickets and frogs? Will it be "the toughest job she ever loved?"
