Lota, Chile:   After a 10 year absence, I finally returned to Lota - where I lived as a Peace Corps Volunteer from 1995 - 1997. Chile´s poorest city, it continues to struggle but its people remain open and big-hearted.

Attached are some fotos - the ones containing people are me with colleages/friends who I´ve known since 1995. Also included are fotos of Lota - the coastal coal mining town that I once called home.  Nestled on hills overlooking the Pacific, the city has incredible potential.
