Training

So, here in our training town, we mostly give talks (charlas) to patients at the health center, or to women's groups, on health topics such as diarrea, hygene, STD, etc. Here are some pictures of us giving charlas to our women's group. They are devouted evangelicals, so at our first meeting, there was a loud, intense group prayer for us. 

Here's us talking, asking them what topics they might want to talk about at future meetings.



Here's the four of us at our second charla. We love to wake up early on Sunday mornings, the only day we have off, to hold a meeting. We're dedicated PCTs.


We gave a charla on hygene, basically telling them they must wash their hands with soap and clean their kitchens.

We also made crepes for them so they could sample a popular American food. Yes we chose crepes to represent America.

Here are some of their kids. The one in his diapers is the most adorable thing.

They like to play with bicycle tires.

I came home one Saturday to find that my family killed our pig!!

And they fried the skin to make chicharron. Chicharron just tastes like chips, but they didn't fry this pig all the way so there was still some mushy stuff in the middle. It was kind of nasty.
