Vietnam

In November, I'm off to Vietnam. Hurrah! I'm going on a service trip with the nursing school I go and we'll be travelling to rural villages where the H'mong people reside to perform health assessments as well observing in Vietnamese hospitals. I'm super duper excited and keen to head off.

The ten of us have been fundraising our little tooshies off and collecting goodies like toothbrushes, soaps, toothpastes, dressing supplies, and toys to give out when we're over there. Today, we got given bags each to take home and sort through to write lists and the likes. And joy of joys, I got the bags to take to the orphanages. So I have spent the afternoon sorting through onesies, pencils, crayons, toys and colouring-in books. I will admit that towards the end I may have got slightly sick of counting each pencil, but hey!


I am so definitely ready to call it a night now. I will no doubt dream of pencils and frisbees.
