High School Special - Medicine In Mongolia

My experience in Mongolia through Projects Abroad was incredibly enriching, eminently challenging, extraordinarily stimulating, and above all, unforgettably joyful. I’m forever thankful for the vast clinical experience & jubilant memories I attained and the marvelous, life-long friends I made. Traveling to Mongolia not knowing anyone there or even speaking the language was exceptionally intimidating - particularly because it was my first time leaving the U.S. and my first time traveling alone. Upon arrival, however, the friendly Projects Abroad staff made me feel welcomed and at ease. My accommodation - Zaya's Hostel - was fantastic. It had a very homey feel, with extremely kind staff that prepared a delicious breakfast for us every morning. The hostel also had wifi, so it was easy to keep in touch with family and friends back home throughout my stay. We were always busy with work and fun activities, so there was never any time wasted! All in all, Projects Abroad is an amazing program, and I would highly recommend it to anyone and everyone! I hope to be able to attend more projects with them in the future.
