Hey Kelsey.

I know you said not to call you, but...

Surprise! I'm in Peace Corps!

I just arrived at my site in this small village in Moldova.

I bet you thought I'd never do it.

It's peaceful here.

I'm excited to meet my new colleagues and settle in to my new life.

You were right, this is...

What the hell...

You're the English teacher...

I thought you spoke Romanian... I'm Victor.

No, you're late.

I almost died of frostbite.

Frostbite?

Never mind. I need a hot shower.

How far is my apartment? - Apartment?

No apartment.

Peace Corps promised me an apartment.

Don't worry, you live with me and my family. Come on, let's go.

So you're not my driver?

Come on, let's go.

I'm the handyman, at your new school.

I was English teacher, but...

I have problem standing in front of the class.

So, why am I staying with you?

The school director asked for volunteers.

I have volunteered.

I hope you won't be a problem.

Otherwise, my wife will kill us both.

You understand?

Put that phone away, we have guests.

Are you hungry?

Take it to your room.

You're too soft on her.

Your mother bought it for her.

So, now my mother is to blame?

You said it, not me.

Very funny.

What is this?

It's for "digestie"...

- Digestion? - Yeah, and to celebrate your arrival.

I'm too tired to drink.

My father said never to trust anyone who doesn't drink with you.

Yeah, I think that's why he always liked me.

What did she say?

She's happy to open her home to you.

Is there meat in this?

I've been a vegetarian for 10 years, I can't eat meat.

Is there meat in the borscht?

If he wants borscht without meat, you can make it.

You didn’t ask me when you invited him to stay here.

Don't worry, no meat.

It's good?

Really?

More?

So good.

I don't feel so good... Where's the restroom?

You want to rest? - No, toilet...

- What's wrong with him? - He says he needs the toilet.

- I think it's because of your meat. - He should have had the wine.

Yeah, you're the doctor.

The toilet is outside.

Go and show him, go.

It's there.

It's ok?

What is this? - Medicine.

Charcoal. - Charcoal?

Yeah, for stomach. - I'm fine.

I don't think you are ok. Try it.

I thought Americans were tough.

What did she say? I heard something about Americans.

She says that Americans are strong, but you don't look strong.

Fine.

I'll take your poison.

It's not poison, medicine.

Charcoal huh?

I think it's working.

A toast.

Welcome to Moldova and my home.

I wish you health and happiness,

over the next 2 years.

And to you the same.

Noroc! - Good luck!

Come on.

This is your room. - Where is the shower?

What the hell?

Aaaaa, cold!

Cold, cold, cold!

What the hell? What are you doing?

I'm sorry, I heard you scream.

What happened to the lights?

Happens all the time...

No lights - no water...

Go, go!

Yeah?

What's this?

For sleep.

To sleep?

Thank you.

Who is that?

She's my girlfriend.

My love.

Iubire?

We have lights!

Tomorrow is a big day.

Get some sleep.

Good night!

Hi Kelsey!

You would love it here.

My host family, they're so great.

They're warm and welcoming and...

I feel a real connection with them.

And the food, oh...

Look at this watermelon.

So good.

Oh, shit. Light's cut out.

Sorry about that. There we go.

Anyway...

I hope you're Peace Corps experience is as wonderful as mine.

Tomorrow I start teaching. Ah, I'm so excited.

Good night Kelsey.

What the hell?

Ah, this is disgusting.

Who the hell pickles watermelon?
