I worked as a midwife in Cap Haitian for a period of time volunteering my services at a birth center there in 2012. I love Haiti and its people! Thank you for your service and the thorough explanations you provide on so many hard to find FSO topics.Dyhttp://lifeunparalleled.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4090854928108916202.post-7045958945507456842015-12-20T05:34:17.605-06:002015-12-20T05:34:17.605-06:00Hi Charlotte - thanks for the note.

I am currently in the twin cities and have been studying for the first step of becoming an officer (i.e. the EXAM). I am a recent graduate and have found myself deeply interested in global politics, foreign policy, and of course the framework for america- the constitution. However, I would find it extremely valuable to be able to speak with you about your experience as an officer and the type of lifestyle you lead. If there is any way this is possible (via email,phone,blog) I would be so greatly appreciative. <br />Thank you for your informative and humorous blogs :-) and I find myself very lucky to have come across someone who may be able to give advice and tips for my future as an officer representing our great country!<br />- Charlotte (Stillwater, MN)Charlottehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01901645646520500288noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4090854928108916202.post-34186386177455131432015-12-16T19:12:01.393-06:002015-12-16T19:12:01.393-06:00Hello Dave- I came across your blog recently and w...Hello Dave- I came across your blog recently and was deeply interested in knowing more about your life as a foreign service officer!
