Travelling abroad was one of the best things I've ever done. With this program, we got the opportunity to immerse ourselves into the healthcare system of Kenya through our hands-on experiences in a public hospital. I also got the chance to spend time in orphanages and schools, which was not only beneficial to the kids but definitely for me as well. Additionally, we went on a safari, visited beaches, toured Old Town Mombasa and Fort Jesus, and saw the famous Mombasa elephant tusks. This trip not only allowed me to become a better future physician, but a better person overall. I greatly encourage students to participate in a program such as this; it truly is a life-changing adventure.
