About this title

Synopsis

Tells the funny, poingnant, scary, and sometimes embarrasing international travel stories of author and US volunteers on cultural and professional exchanges. He learned the minor art of vodka toasting while remaining standing during medical collaborations in Russia, the intricacies of proper bravery traveling in Ukraine, fell in love with grappa during culinary exchanges in Italy, came to appreciate fish head soup during sport exchanges in Malaysia, and fostered a pizza revelion of chinese students in the US. The story culminates in Tanzania, where Phil finds his purpose in life while developing cooperative programs that empower women, lower maternal mortality in Maasai villages, and increase access to medical care for the warmest and most resilient people he has ever met.
