I
found the cross cultural experience in Senegal to be rich. Meeting with
healers and medical doctors I developed an appreciation for the art of
medicine. Meeting with teachers and principals, I developed an
understanding of the importance of getting a good education, staying
active and what options there are for retirement - which opened my eyes
to how other people work and live in the world. Meeting with linguists I
developed an understanding for how an oral language becomes a written
one. I was entertained and inspired by watching complex dance steps, and
listening to original music on strange and familiar instruments.
Traveling is a wonderful way to learn about the world and yourself and I
highly recommend this well-organized trip, tailored to your interests. |
