Through this photo book, Dr. Büsselberg and the pre-medical students share their extraordinary journey during their medical service-learning trip to the United Republic of Tanzania. They take us on a unique path, where the group is immersed in the reality of the ground, visiting local villages and markets. These encounters offer a direct connection with the people and their age-old customs, while also participating in the provision of health-related services. These experiences, a blend of practical training in health services and tourism, not only provide the students with diverse perspectives and unforgettable memories of warm hospitality but also forge everlasting friendships with the people of the United Republic of Tanzania.
