Volunteered At: La Clinica de San Juan de Dios
Tags: cusco, peru
My Favorite Memory: So many to choose from – spending time in the kitchen at the clinic helping to prepare for lunch.
I was surprised that…. Cusco is such a small city. It seems like everyone knows everyone else.
The most difficult thing I experienced was…. The language barrier. It got better as the weeks went on.
My best received lesson… Trust your instincts – and be honest.
Tip for future volunteers… Raincoat and sunscreen. And keep them with you at all times.
