Mid-Week Burnt Out


Stressed from the days' work and you feel like you just want to go somewhere and chill? Well I've got the best place for you. This place is called Hagnaya Beach Resort. The perfect place to have an alone time and just relax. Just 30 minutes from Bogo City so you can just sneak right back in a snap.

CTT's with Hannah


Hannah Naisser from Wales, assisting our Surgeon in inserting a Chest Thoracotomy Tube. The Tube is used as drainage if there's a lot of fluid in the pleural space.

Right of Passage




It has been a painful week for us. A lot of poking needles to our bodies. We have been practicing how to properly give medications to the following routes IM ID AND SUBCU. Hans (Philippines) and Hikari (Singapore) were doing it on each other. I taught it to them that way because that's how I learned it when I was in UNI. It also better to practice on each other so that they could relate to pain the patient will feel if we do an injection. 

No pain No gain as what they say!

The Weekend Getaways

Of course, everyone is looking forward to the weekend. It is the time where the magic happens. I have tallied down the best places to spend the weekend.


5. Cebu City- The Queen City of the South. There's a lot of activities you can do here. One of them is walking around a skyscraper.


The Great Exchange

Hannah (Wales) anxious about what's gonna happen. Lucas (France) more than excited. Hugo (Canada) the pressure is on you..

I am the most difficult patient you will ever encounter.

Hugo is teaching Hannah how to properly suture.


We may lack technology here in the Philippines but I am very sure that our skills are sharper than anyone else. I taught them how to do different routes of giving medications and in return Hugo taught us how to suture a laceration.

I just want to give a big shoutout to all the Lefties out there. Yep, we are lefities and we do things differently.

I believe that knowledge is infinite. There is no limit into how much you can learn. I am also learning from you guys.
