Volunteer Update: Philip H.

Participated in Moving Medical Camp held in Goljung, in April 2007:

“We were driven to Goljung (7 hours from Kathmandu) by a very competent driver. We lived with the staff at the clinic (very rustic). We saw about 170 patients in 3 days, which wasn’t work; it was pure and simple delightful fun. Seeing patients, observing the beautiful Tamang women and children in their native dress, watching the sunlight on the mountains. The people at the clinic as well as all the patients were so beautiful; I could have stayed there for weeks. Then we trekked for 3 more days with our trustworthy and intelligent guide. We had hoped to make a moving clinic of our trek, but had not made sufficient preparations, so we more or less just hiked in the beautiful Langtang area. I recommend this trip and The Mountain Fund to others and I am planning to come soon again.”
