Kelly is a member of a committee of Peace Corps Volunteers that organizes scholarships and workshops for young Salvadoran women. Here, scholarship recipients participate in an activity about gender stereotypes and biases.
The workshop was held at a rustic government-owned workers’ center. We slept in bunk beds in cabins. The perk is that the lodging is free. After the workshop ended, the two of us stayed another night on the lake but in a nearby hotel. This is the view of the hotel’s restaurant on the pier.
The lake is in the crater of a has-been volcano and, for that reason, is unusually warm and extremely deep. On our way home from the lake we tried to visit a cool archeological site. It took a good two hours out of our day only to discover it was closed. We shamelessly begged the guard to let us in, which did not work.
