This was my first mission to Ayacucho. I had no idea what to expect, but what an amazing and rewarding experience! I have made so many new friends on the mission and in the town as well. The second day of the mission was especially busy and I kept seeing patients while another patient was waiting for test to be resulted. She was gesturing and said something I didn´t understand. I asked the interpreter what she said and he told me that she was giving me a blessing because I had so many patients to see. I think that moment really captured the heart of the Ayacuchan people and why this trip was so rewarding for me. I hope that I will be able to come again next year!
