Americans can imagine inviting a country to visit, but embassies present national pride abroad. An embassy hosts diplomats including an ambassador, with U S staff in Washington and overseas. Embassies promote peace, democracy, trade, and protect citizens, staffed by both American and local personnel.
An embassy commercial officer in Ouagadougou narrates a day on assignment in Burkina Faso. She answers Washington emails, attends a prime minister’s ceremony, and travels 300 kilometers to a village near the Ghana border to seek funds for a village well while meeting locals. A dramatic moment with a large green-striped spider ends with a village chief presenting a live chicken.
A Q and A captures a nine year old’s view of growing up in the U S foreign service, living in Jordan and China and Amman. It covers moving every few years, making new friends, adjusting to cultures, and language training at the Foreign Service Institute. The ambassador’s role and embassy duties are noted in passing.
