Those who have read my site for a long time know that the Moldovan press has a history of saying good things about me while giving lip service factual accuracy. That's why this article by an English camp student published in the camp newspaper is great. Not only does it say good things, but it doesn't make up any quotes or facts about my life. Great job, Mihaela.

Our Favorite Guy

According to one questionnaire, the most favorite counselor of English Summer Camp 2006 is Peter Myers.

"He can mix the way to be funny and clever in the same time," said Victoria of Let's Go Girls.

Peter is from Chicago, Illinois, but now he is living in Mereseni, Hincesti.

A friend of his father helped him to make the decision to work in the Peace Corps. He is happy that he came here because he likes Moldova, Moldovan people, traditions and music.

He likes very much his host family and his school. He is an English teacher of fifth to eighth grade. he is going to teach high school English after going back to the U.S.A.

He doesn't like the way how the women are treated in Moldova. Peter said that when he was walking through Chisinau some weeks ago, he saw how a boy hit his girlfriend.

When he came up there, another boy told him that it's not his problem, and these are simple relationships between a boy and a girl.

Peter said, "It's too bad that women are living under stereotypes."

He is 23, and he has one more year to stay in Moldova. That's why he hopes to be the next year at English Summer Camp, too.

Peter said that it is a great opportunity for all young people to practice English. "I'm impressed by the level of English. You are the best speakers from Moldova," said Peter.

He chose Sports and Games because it's a lot of fun there. The campers like it, too. "I like it because Peter and Chad (Wesen) can find an easy way to everyone's heart," Marina of E.T.C. said.

Peter's favorite saying is, "Do or do not, there is no try."
