Hands down, the best "vacation" of my life. Most of our time was spent among the most humble, grateful people on Earth. It was a privilege to be able to help, albeit in a small way. I also met amazing people and forged lasting friendships. Chris Olson came with me- he will no doubt be a fantastic dentist someday. I was also able to spend time with my buddy, Kevin Jeffers. We haven't seen each other for years, but it was like a day had passed. I hope I am able to dedicate increasingly more time to work like this in the future.
