Bolivian adventures: Pictures from the past few days :)

We arrived and worked and the clinic, enjoyed watching and playing a game of fútbol with the locals, and talked with many med residents/med students that are spending time here as part of their school electives for a short period of time and clinic coordinators who spend a year here between their third and fourth year of med school. Interviews have been going well and we feel like we are getting more of the hang of how the clinic works, our survey, and the need of clinic patients. We are excited to do a presentation on Wednesday to help educate the community and to make something lasting to facilitate and continue to help the clinic work to provide quality care to the surrounding communities.

I found one of my favorite fruits-tumbo!!

So thrilled....I almost bought 1,000 tumbos and passion fruits.

Traditional Bolivian dinner at Casa del Cambo

Couldn't help it. All of this was less than $50. The fruit was SUPER cheap. This slice of watermelon was about 4 Bolivianos, or about 50 cents. A whole ripe papaya-$1. 3 amazing, ripe avocados (palta)=$1.25. Wow.
