"Finally, a book about the fun side of the Peace Corps. India-33 was fourteen single men on state government poultry farms in Kerala and Mysore States, plus twenty-two singles and married couples doing poultry extension work and teaching school in Gujarat State, all in their early twenties. We were serious about our work, but we were also serious about our play. These are stories about a sailing adventure in the British Virgin Islands during our training, fire walking in the jungle, riding a train with a monkey, sitting in on trumpet with a combo in a Bangalore bar, jumping from a moving train in Gujarat, a female volunteer being visited by a naked sadhu, celebrating the Shivaratri festival in a rural village where wife swapping was sometimes an option, visiting temples where pornography was carved in stone, vacationing on a houseboat in Srinigar, hiking from Kathmandu to Mt. Everest Base Camp and back, and visiting a Bombay brothel. This is the Peace Corps you’ve probably never read about, until now.”
