Can you recommend a book along these lines?

Asked by sliceswiththings (11723points) December 3rd, 2013

Hello old friends (are any of my old Fluther buddies still on here?)!

I am looking for a non-fiction book about either teaching abroad late in life or as a retiree, or joining the peace corps late in life. Has anyone come across a good title? Thanks!

Good to see you back again.

Former Pres. Jimmy Carter’s Mother, Lillian, joined the Peace Corps at age 68 and served in India.

She later published a book based upon the letters she wrote to her family during that time.
