Abstract/OtherAbstract:
|
When Simon Ernst decided he wanted to work for six months as a volunteer dentist in Africa, he expected to spend all his time working in one place. Instead he found himself organising the trip of a lifetime, working with three different organisations in three different African countries. Here is describes some of the lows of the planning process, and the extraordinary highs he experienced once he arrived. |
