You can use this common factor to get to know one another. This is a great way to meet people your age from all over the world. Who knows, you may find yourself building friendships that last a lifetime!

I most enjoyed my time in the hospital and also the time I spent at Pokhara. This is because in the hospital I observed doctors and nurses in a variety of wards and it gave me the opportunity to see the process of healthcare in another country.
