Zahnis on Tour

Koh Rong Sanloem slows us down. But Feli wouldn't be Feli if she didn't find every little opportunity to do something :D That's how it happened that I found myself on a quad bike...

We've been island residents for five days now. And what can I say? Life here moves at a slower, more peaceful pace. If I had to compare life here to someone else, it would be...

We have quite a bit to catch up on! On October 20th, we switched hotels within Siem Reap and spent the evening exploring the new surroundings a bit. Even though it was just around...

Good morning! In the last few days, we had a scene change. But let's start on October 16th, which was our penultimate working day. Together with Annalina and Mara, we decided...

Yesterday, while working, we casually learned that October 15th is a holiday in Cambodia, so we wouldn't be working. This is the death anniversary of the King's father.

Back in Phnom Penh, sitting on the sofa, we can now tell you about the last two days. Yesterday, it was incredibly hot in Kampot and very oppressive due to the high humidity. So,...

Now we really kept you hanging for a few days! Please excuse our inconsistency. Thursday: the morning went largely normally. We started treatments at 8 a.m. That day, we had a lot...

As not many patients came today, we wanted to use the time to reflect on Cambodia's recent past and visited the Genocide Museum, also known as Tuol Sleng or S-21. Thus, today's...

What an eventful two days it has been! Let's dive in: Yesterday, we had the day off and decided to take a trip to Silk Island, a small island in the Mekong River just outside...

Hello again! Jetlag has set in and we were awake until 3 a.m. 👍🏼 Friday started like the days before with a shift at the clinic. Somehow, there was a vibe of things going wrong:...

The first two working days are behind us! Here’s a brief wrap-up: The small practice is located in the backyard of a pagoda, which is like a temple for Buddhism. Accordingly, we...

Hey folks, did you miss us? I think so, otherwise you wouldn't be here now ;) This time we're taking you to Cambodia, the beautiful land of the Khmer, full of tradition and...

Finally back on the beach. After we had moved into our room, we immediately secured two loungers on the beach, where we spent the rest of the afternoon. At 6 p.m. we had a date...

Time out. Just relax and do nothing. Where better to do that than in this hotel? View of the sunset from the rooftop bar For the last three days we just laid by the pool and...

1041 meters above sea level. Welcome to Sri Lanka's highlands! For comparison: Mainz is located at an elevation of 89m above sea level. But let's start from the beginning. About...

And once again we get to know a completely different Sri Lanka. Kandy is one of the larger cities, lots of people, even more traffic, very hilly with steep streets that the tuk...

First stop of the holiday trip. Our accommodation is simply amazing! In the middle of the jungle, an open tree house. With the manager's announcement: "If there's a rustling in...

I'm not crying, you're crying!

The last working week has begun! Since Saturday it's been work, work, work! The shifts are long, the patients are often very dramatic and the occupational safety... well, wild. ...

Colombo - a completely different Sri Lanka. A lot more people, a lot more traffic, high-rise buildings, shopping malls, more European prices. Our little city trip started on...

Well, did you miss us? Just have a few days off and relax on the beach. What could be nicer? Our hotel in Trincomalee was right on the beach. As always, the furry friends are...

Day off! Or: Days off! Today our day started very early. The alarm clock rang at 4:30 a.m. because the tuk tuk was supposed to come at 5:15 a.m. and take us to the clinic. Once...

We've been in beautiful Sri Lanka for a week and so I (Feli) thought it was time to change our perspective. So I'll take over the blog entry and give you insights from my...

Today it was time to get up early! We had to take the bus at 7:30 am. For anyone who says it's not early: we are three girls with only one bathroom. But joking aside. This bus...

After we had yesterday off and were able to relax with a massage and by the pool, today we started seeing our first patients at the clinic. Fillings, root canals or just making...

Done on Monday. The temperatures here inland are on a completely different level. My (Isi) cell phone showed 37°C today. After we were able to enjoy a typical local breakfast...

The first days pass by so quickly. And the first change of accommodation comes just as quickly. Time to say goodbye to the beach and embark on the journey to the jungle. But...

After Feli and I (Isi) landed punctually on Friday at 8.30 a.m., we were able to check into our first accommodation. Things went a little differently for Melody... The first...

We are leaving!
