What are examples of Peace Corps Volunteer housing?

See three examples of Volunteer housing and the wide variety of scenarios, ranging from a rural hut surrounded by nature to living with a host family. Volunteer housing accommodations vary greatly but all must meet the Peace Corps' standards for safety and suitability.

My rent was 4 dollars a month. Sure we didnt have electricity and running water and I fell in my latrine, but it was all mine....

I lived alone in what was once the guest house of the plantation mansion; located about 10 miles away. Of course, it was last inhabited about 50 years earlier so it was in sad shape. The locals refused to live there because they considered it haunted. No electricity, or running water, and the attic was full of bats. Out the back screened porch was Mount Kilimanjaro, so it was pretty awesome. This was in the 80s, sadly the building is gone now. I miss it some days.

It is true, the simpler the lifestyle, the happier one is in one's home.

I know im late to this particular video but it has the most views, i wanted to ask if i would be capable of joining the peace corps with a full time job specifically being able to help on weekends (saturday and sundays) exclusively. I need to make ends meet at home and would like to help suffering peoples/countries in some way shape or form

I would think so Practical Spirituality, a lot to be said about a humble home.
