I was born and raised in a "3rd world country" and volunteered in an orphanage - Ask me anything

I use quotation marks because this term is outdated but seems like DCUM like to use it.
Ready,
Set,
Go!

How long did you volunteer in the orphanage, and was it in the 3rd world country you were raised in?

Also, you say the term is outdated - this is the first I hear of that - what is the current term for 3rd world country?

What country?

What brought you to the US, assuming you are here? What do you do?

Oh. Thank you. I am so glad to know this - I would hate to accidentally insult someone or their country.

I worked there for 10 years since I was 14. I quit the job there to come here to the US to learn English in order to apply to a masters program back home.

I will skip this for now until we get more questions and see if anybody can guess.

I came here to learn English (a pre requisite to apply for a masters program back home). 3 weeks before my flight to return home I met DH. Now I've been working on my education waiting for my work permit.

Is this a joke?

You really think this thread is interesting enough for people to try and guess the country? Do you know how many countries there are in the world?

Lesa than 200. And the point was to guess based on the answers to the questions but seems like people are not interested. I don't blame you. You all have heat, water and will stuff yourselves with food in a few days. You'll spend money on things your kids don't need or will forget very soon and will keep living your life of working like a horse and wasting the money on useless stuff.

Have fun. Who cares about what goes on somewhere else, right?
