This article was in the Blackfoot Morning News on the front page...Yep I am a rock star..JK It is a bit cheesy but it's ok. Some of you wanted to see it so here it is.  Blackfoot woman headed for jungle of Guyana BLACKFOOT — Krystal Keller has never been out of the country, but on Sunday she leaves for the jungles of Guyana. The Blackfoot High School grad was accepted to serve in the Peace Corps for two years, an adventure she said she  looks forward to — even if she doesn't know exactly what kind of work she will be doing. “I will probably be working in a clinic or a school,” Keller said. “My job will be as a community health promoter.” That suits her just fine, she said, since she graduated last year from Brigham Young University-Idaho with a health sciences degree. Keller’s mother, Cheryl, said her daughter was at a point in life where she wanted some help making some decisions. She had graduated  from school, worked for a year and wanted to do something to help other people, she said. “My mother suggested I look at the Peace Corps,” she said. “And I've always wanted to do something to change the world, even if it was  just a small part of the world.” Keller said her family has been very supportive of her decision to serve in the Peace Corps. "I think my dad has been the most worried." she said. "But I tell people I'm not in the Army. I'm not in any kind of danger." While Guyana is part of South America, it is considered by most of the world as part of the Caribbean. The nation located just north of  the equator is bordered by Venezuela on the west and the Atlantic Ocean on the east. "It is more associated with the Caribbean or Trinidad and Tobago,"  Keller said. "It's hot all the time, so I won't need to take warm clothing." "There are two seasons there," her mother said. "The dry season and the wet season." While she has yet to learn exactly what she will be doing, she said said she will likely be working with health care in the area. "She is a little anxious," her mother said. "Just because it is so different." "I look at this like a job," Krystal said. "After I graduated, I really wanted to do something to help people. I thought it was really cool that we  send people from our county to help other people in other countries." The Peace Corps sends volunteers to travel all over the world at the request of countries to make a difference in the lives of real people. President John F Kennedy established the Peace Corps in 1961 to promote world peace and friendship. In return for her service, Keller will have her living expenses paid and will receive about $2.50 per day for discretionary spending. Keller will spend about eight weeks in training before she is assigned to a job. She said she will live with a family for at least the first few weeks to better learn the culture of the nation. "The speak English and Creol," she said. "Although the English they speak is probably a lot different than I'm used to." Krystal is the youngest of Michael and Cheryl Keller. She has three older brothers all of whom have served LDS missions. Krystal Keller will leave on Sunday. Her family extends an invitation for her friends to wish her well by attending an open house 7-9 p.m. on  Wednesday at the Keller home, 1046 E Walker Street, Blackfoot.
