Volunteering in Nkoaranga hospital - Tanzania

I spent more then 1 month in a little hospital situated on mount Meru, near Arusha. It was a really great experience: I spent my days following doctors and nurses in the ward, in the theatre, in the maternity department (where I followed many deliveries) and in the out patients department. I'm a medical student and for me it was a really usefull journey: I learned many things about tropical diseases as malaria, intestinal worms (as tenia, hentamaeba...), AIDS and tifo. It was interensting to spend time in the laboratory doing tests for malaria or other diseases.
I didn't have any problems in health: no many mosquitoes during the dry season and I used to take a drug to prevent malaria; I was ok with my stomach and I like local food!
I was hosted by a local family and it was nice! I enjoied this trip and I recommend it to everyone!
