Interviews with Cross Cultural Consultant & Author Craig Storti (Morocco 1970-72)
Craig was interviewed recently on Global Connections TV by host and fellow Returned Peace Corps Volunteer, Bill Miller (Dominican Republic 1968-70). Craig Storti is an author and a trainer/consultant in the field of intercultural communications and cross-cultural adaptation. Eight of his books are on intercultural topics, while the two most recent—Why Travel Matters and especially The Hunt for Mount Everest—are for general audiences. He was a Peace Corps Volunteer in Morocco, which offered a unique experience that was crucial in promoting the concept that there are several world views and expanding his love of travel and the intercultural field. When President Kennedy established the Peace Corps in 1961, he had three goals to provide technical assistance, discuss America with your host country nationals and bring the experience home and share it. Main themes in intercultural training include your values, beliefs and assumptions, which may be different from someone else’s, being more aware of your own culture when you travel and always being open minded.

We also share a common interest for the author of the most popular Peace Corps Experience book, Living Poor A Peace Corps Chronicle by Moritz Thomsen. In 2020, Craig interviewed me on Bookmarks: Living Poor & The Saddest Pleasures which is part of SIETAR (Society for International Education, Training and Research.) We discussed the life and work of Moritz Thomsen which will be the focus of my next book, The Moritz Thomsen Reader.
