Something noble...yet glamorous, she hoped. With some ambivalence she looked into joining the Peace Corps. When she fell for her dashing and altruistic Peace Corps recruiter, John, all the ambivalence disappeared. She absolutely <i>had</i> to join the Peace Corps, if for no other reason than to win John&#8217;s heart. Off to Ecuador she went&#8212;and after a year in the jungle, back to the States she ran, vowing to stay within easy reach of a decaf cappuccino for the rest of her life.
