About the Book

After a 23 year career in TV News, Steve Hunsicker left the comforts of his Florida home, moved to the South Pacific and served for more than two years as Peace Corps Volunteer. As a volunteer, Steve helped more than 500 small business owners start or expand businesses in one on on settings and workshops. He created websites for four Tongan businesses; he tutored students on business topics at the University of the South Pacific and produced several videos including one for Peace Corps to explain Tonga to incoming volunteers. Steve is also the co-author of a travel book about Tonga published by Other Places Publishing. This chronological account of his adventures begins from the day he first decided to apply to Peace Corps until the day he finished his service. Through his stories the reader will gain a great insight into not only the Peace Corps but life in the South Pacific. Steve's story is a great read for anyone who has wanted to leave the world of corporate America for a simliar experience. The beginning of the book deals a lot with the process of applying to Peace Corps, but once Steve arrives in Tonga, the stories and numerous photos bring to life the people and the culture of the island Kingdom. This edition of the book was updated in December, 2012.
