An Examined Life: Excursions!
http://elisabethsederberg.blogspot.com/2012/02/excursions.html
Adventures in travel, the written word, medicine, food, art, friendships, and a labrador retriever. Monday, February 13, 2012. We visited a TB hospital last week as well as the oldest hospital in Kathmandu (120 years old! We had an extensive tour of the waste management system in the hospital (a bit random, but it gave us exposure to the wards and I think the WM people were the only ones not on lunch break at the time we visited. Hehe). If he did that and created an amulet for a woman, she would deliver,...

An Examined Life: The best 24 hours ever!
http://elisabethsederberg.blogspot.com/2012/02/best-24-hours-ever.html
Adventures in travel, the written word, medicine, food, art, friendships, and a labrador retriever. Sunday, February 19, 2012. The best 24 hours ever! In the common room of the guest house before the trek to Nagarkot! Aarti, Katherine, and Joanna, our friend from Switzerland! This weekend we hiked to Nagerkot! 10 miles up MOUNTAINS! I felt like we were on some epic mission to get to Nagarkot, over the neverending staircase, up to the misty mountains. Thank you, 21 years of fantasy book reading! Secondary...

An Examined Life: Medicine in Nepal
http://elisabethsederberg.blogspot.com/2012/02/medicine-in-nepal.html
Adventures in travel, the written word, medicine, food, art, friendships, and a labrador retriever. Friday, February 10, 2012. Dhulikhel hospital from the library. Quite a climb to the wards! We've already seen some really interesting things- even in two days in Dhulikhel. Things that wouldn't even enter my differential diagnosis are commonplace here: tuberculosis, typhoid, brucellosis! Of course I know something like that.). Afternoons involve (so far) more lectures, before, yes, another chia break!

Adventures in travel, the written word, medicine, food, art, friendships, and a labrador retriever. Monday, March 5, 2012. Back in the U.S., missing Nepal like crazy!

An Examined Life: Catch Up
http://elisabethsederberg.blogspot.com/2012/02/catch-up.html
Adventures in travel, the written word, medicine, food, art, friendships, and a labrador retriever. Friday, February 10, 2012. The river valley we followed to find our health outreach (REMOTE! So internet is very iffy so far in Dhulikhel due to a variety of complicating factors- electricity outages due to load shedding of electricity as much of it is sold to India (interesting. probably more on this if I ever feel like writing about challenges in Nepal), time in clinic, and slow/inaccessible computers.

Adventures in travel, the written word, medicine, food, art, friendships, and a labrador retriever. Wednesday, February 22, 2012. In Bhaktapur- one of many Mandir (Hindu temple). Two days ago we visited Bhaktapur, a nearby city with a well preserved center (it's a world heritage site and they charge admission.a bit touristed but very worth seeing). It was also a holiday for Shiva's birthday, and everyone seemed pretty festive! Driving requires new levels of skill in some countries. Nobody.has put in ...
