Philotimo Med is truly special

From the moment I arrived, I felt secure and supported. The accommodation was safe, in a charming neighborhood, and the short walk to the shelter each morning gave me time to soak in the Greek scenery. Shadowing a local dentist was an invaluable experience. I observed treatments that focused on children's dental hygiene, and it was inspiring to see how the dentist explained proper care to the kids, making them feel comfortable. The children at the shelter were always eager to learn and play, and I felt honored to be a part of their journey. I’d definitely bring a journal next time to write down all the little moments with the children. The group dinners were the best way to end each day, filled with laughter and good food. I feel like I gained a new family during my time in Greece.
