The Pacific Hope
A couple of weeks ago, I had a very busy, very lovely, very different kind of week. I, along with most of the other volunteers on Ambae, got involved with helping a medical ship, The Pacific Hope, with their outreach in Lolowai (a town about a 30 min walk from mine). I spent the week travelling about 200 miles on a small boat to help them find certain villages, translating for doctors and nurses, swinging on the rope swing off of their ship, meeting lovely people, eating lovely food (it was so good...there was cheese!), feeling disoriented by being in AC on their ship, and making so, so many phone calls.
As those of you who read my blog may have noticed, I shy away from the day-to-day play-by-play (I like how many hyphens I just used), so I hope you enjoy some highlighted moments from the week.
For those that want the more visual version, I'll post here first the video Marine Reach (the organization that runs the boat) made about their week on Ambae.
