peacecorps: In the photo, I was teaching two of my host sisters, Samira and Hafsa, about how in America we make wishes on dandelions. We live in the Sahara desert but near an Oasis. Here the children know every plant, herb and even weed that grows. They always want me to eat some strange seed, or smell a weird plant. Now they know another use for dandelions! Photo taken by fellow Volunteer, Jo Troyer. Peace Corps Youth Development Volunteer Rachel Rubinski This picture is beautiful. I’d hope that one day every child can blow dandelions and not have to worry about their next meal.
