I have had an amazing month in Nepal. The staff here in Bharatpur have been so kind and helpful from start to finish. My host family were so welcoming and friendly. I have met some other amazing volunteers and locals! I felt so immersed in Nepali culture. My highlight of the whole trip was definitely my time spent in Chitwan Human Services home.

Projects Abroad has made this adventure an amazing opportunity. They have looked after us with our host families, placement, and with weekend planning. Amit and Binod have been amazing when we needed them, always on call, especially when we needed medical assistance. Ambica has taught us so much Nepali, and we have laughed every night around her dinner table. The Physio team have taught us many new techniques and have been very welcoming. We have had opportunities to see surgery and visit ER. Also to see humanitarian projects outside of the hospital. Thank you everyone! It's been great.

    There is a real shortage of physical therapy skills in Nepal, so we provide interns of all abilities to observe and assist local doctors and physical therapists. You will find that the experience you gain will really help you to get an idea of how a busy physical therapy department works. If you are a trained physical therapist, you will find yourself busy and in demand from your first day. Some of our interns work at rehabilitation centers for disabled children. These are located within the Kathmandu valley, from the ancient towns of Bhaktapur and Patan to those based on hilltops beside quaint villages on the outskirts of the capital city. Here interns often see cases with children who were born with polio or have had accidents that have not been treated correctly. Many placements deal...
