As my program comes to an end, we are enjoying our last moments in St. John! We hiked to the amazing petroglyphs and learned about the meaning of the symbols. Our group went to a reggae concert, which truly showed us so much from music to food. This whole experience has brought friends, memories, clinical experience, and a world view. I am so sad for this program to come to an end, but I am leaving this place with so much love for the people and sites I am leaving behind. I am so thankful for all I have seen and experienced over the past five weeks and I cannot believe I have been privileged enough to see all that I have.
