Kori and Kate

Kori and Kate are full of enthusiasm and hopes for their stay in Indonesia. Kate is a medical student who will spend the summer at our base gaining experience in tropical diseases. Kori is a certified teacher who will be teaching English to our staff. Kori will be staying a year at the base as the English teacher. She is also gong to be going to Australia for the English as a second language course. Kate will be coming back in time to attend college in September.

We met together tonight--this was the last meeting before they depart for Indonesia. They are ready for the trip and the cultural differences they will experience. These young woman are at a prime time for this experience. They are both single and are ready for a foreign experience. They are also realistic about their time in Indonesia.

Remember them as they travel and then give everything they have to serve the staff and the poor who come to our clinic.
