The video was for HiRPCV's "Bring the World Home" and aired on Olelo (Hawaii's public-access cable channels) during Sep./Oct. 2010. It was recorded in Aug. 2010. Mahalo to producer/interviewer Linda Chock.

    My mom is from Chuuk and my dad was able to meet her during his time in the military as well back in the 1990s. It's so cool you have videos on Chuuk, I don't meet a lot of people who know have even heard the name. I wish I knew the beautiful language, though I spent a year there as a kid back in 2006ish. Cool videos, best thing is probably their music! To this day I have 70+ cousins living in Hawaii, Chuuk, and across the U.S.

      It was a life-defining experience for us that affects us every day. Peace Corps is still active, so get info at www.peacecorps.gov, and check if there's a PC recruiter in your area.
