Probably the most rewarding part of traveling is meeting people. As much traveling I do the surfing, diving, fishing, has always been the "icing" on the cake while the friendships we make is priceless. A perfect example is our good friend, Erick Itoman. He went on a trip to the Mentawai Islands in Indonesia while in medical school was able to use the trip as a mission helping others. I remember how he brought band aids and walked the village while the children flocked around him. One lady who had infections on her feet was also lucky to get personal treatment. Remember there are no hospitals in this area of the world.
Well this doctor can travel, surf, dive, and eat! And today is a very special day for him and his wife, Laurene as they return to Hawaii for good where we can hang out and enjoy life doing what he is called to do. Welcome home and let's get your gills in the water!
