Your Trip Leader will take you on a walking tour of Tamarindo, giving you a chance to learn about the local way of life. The evening will be dedicated to an orientation meeting where we will distribute Personal Protective Equipment (PPE), cover what to expect for the week, safety precautions, and a brief training course on our Mobile Clinics. Meals are not included today, but there are lots of great places to eat nearby.

During a MEDLIFE Reality Tour, volunteers accompany staff to partner communities, gaining insight into their daily challenges and exposure to extreme poverty for the first time. It's a pivotal experience, aiming to foster cultural awareness and sensitivity crucial for serving communities abroad.

Volunteers support daily Mobile Clinics in various communities near Tamarindo, each lasting from 8-9 am to 1-3 pm. Activities include triage, educational talks, and medical consultations, with volunteers assisting physicians and managing prescriptions. Evenings may feature post-clinic activities or free time to explore the city.

Today, join locals on a community project like home renovation or well construction, departing the hostel at 7:30 am. Wear suitable clothes. After completion, celebrate with the community. We'll return around 2:30-4:00 pm for reflection and debrief with the MEDLIFE team.
