Dr. Drew's daily audio blog from our Thailand Hill Tribes location
Episode 5
Monday, 31 March, 2025
Dr. Drew, a retired orthodontist and seasoned Globe Aware volunteer, has already made an impact in Cusco, Peru, and the Galápagos—now, he's at our Hill Tribes location, just across the border from Myanmar. From there, he's gearing up for our Philippines program! What makes his experience extraordinary? He’s providing much-needed dental care for local children, just as he did in Peru. (If you're not in dental field, your work activity will differ.) But that’s not all—he’s sharing firsthand insights on accommodations, local cuisine, cultural immersion on day one, and even how he handled a credit card hiccup when his primary card wasn’t accepted. Oh, and did we mention the massive earthquake that shook Myanmar and Thailand the very next day? He felt it—tune in to hear what that was like!Thinking about joining a volunteer adventure of your own? Learn more here: https://www.globeaware.org/destinations/asia/thailand-hill-tribes
