From Surgery to Souvenirs: A Trip to Remember!

Can’t believe I had the chance to shadow as a premed students in Larissa, Greece for 2 weeks! The Philotimo Med program was everything I imagined and more. Observing surgeries, interacting with patients, and getting hands-on learning – it was so educational. What blew me away though was the food. Greek cuisine? Insane. Souvlaki, tzatziki, baklava... I’m literally craving it now. And the accommodation super safe, and comfy. The drive from the airport to Larissa was a bit long, but the views were incredible, so it wasn’t bad at all. Definitely worth the trip!
