Healthcare volunteering project in Kathmandu, Nepal

This was my first ever solo-trip, so I was rather nervous to begin with. However, from the moment of first contact with the organisation until the end, they were always there to support me and answer any questions that I had. My country coordinator was especially helpful and showed me around the town and helped me exchange money and get a sim card. The people at the hostel were also very accommodating and treated me like a family member. My project was healthcare and although I could only do minimal amount of work (since I was only a high-school student), I still took away a lot from the nurses, physicians, and patients.

The hostel itself was very nice and clean. Both the airport pick-up and drop-off were efficient. The people at the hostel always asked me about how I was doing, how my day was, and made sure I was safe and happy.
