Amber Buhl, BS Civil Engineering, Michigan State University,
MS planned in Environmental Engineering (serving in Philippines).
Where am I from? Where to begin- I was born and raised until the
age of 15 in Waterford, Michigan then moved to Lapeer (also Michigan)
and finally to Lansing (Michigan’s capital for all who didn’t
know) and got a bachelors of science in Civil Engineering at MSU
(Go Spartans!). While on a study abroad I lived in Guildford, England
for four months and on a separate study abroad in Volgograd, Russia
for one month.
Why am I enrolled in the Master’s International Peace Corps
program? I really enjoy experiencing other cultures. I have gone
on two trips abroad and have been addicted to traveling ever since.
I have decided that now is the perfect time to go live in a rural
community for two years because I have no attachments. Who knows
maybe I’ll decide that I want to live in a different country
where I have to eat with my unwashed hands permanently. You only
live once right, experience life to its fullest!
