A new year and a new cohort bring new beginnings! With a year under their belt, a few Group 136 writers (plus one former Group 106 writer and our PCVL!) give sound advice to the incoming cohort.

Now that we're dreaming of hot cocoa and cozy fires while sweating at 8 in the morning, we asked a few of our writers how they're bringing the spirit of the fall season to their communities.

For some, it's the beginning of their service journey, while for others, it's the beginning of the end. In every experience, however, there's plenty of chaos, frustration, joy and laughter. Check out our staff's favorite moments in the midst of it all!

Across oceans and many miles, distant from friends, family, pets, sometimes creature comforts, and many other things we hold dear, our Sticky Rice Staff seeks to find the little ways we can make a house a home.

This month, our writers reflect on the Thai lifestyle, and share the myriad of ways their time in service has taught them to relax and chill.

Although it's only June, the rainy season is well underway, and that means Thailand is bursting with green. Surrounded by lush scenery, we've asked our staff writers to pick a favorite landmark among the green things we all have plenty of - trees.

This month marks a milestone, and the start of school! Our writers share significant, impactful moments from their service, captured in pictures worth thousands of words.

And with that, your service comes to a close. Congratulations, farewell, and good luck to Groups 133 & 134! Thank you for all you've done for Peace Corps, and Thailand.

From cards and candy to stickers galore, February in Thailand is all about spreading the love. This month our staff took some time to reflect on all that love, and send some of it back - through love letters!

The new year brings not only looking back but looking forward to our Sticky Rice writers, and we all look forward in our own unique ways.

Group 134 PC Thailand Volunteers are gathered in Bangkok to celebrate and reflect on the last almost two years of volunteer service in Thailand. In honor of the "Close of Service" Conference, we're running a short series of "Odes".Today our 134 Staff Writers have a few words to share with an important person in the Sticky Rice family.

"Happy Halloween! This month it felt appropriate to have our Sticky Rice Writing Staff share their experiences with the unexplainable since landing in Thailand."
