Not Just a Tourist

July 8, 2026

It's official, I'm not just a tourist!

My APS colleague, Deborah Sanchez, who volunteers with the Arlington chapter of Not Just Tourists, gave me a suitcase filled with medical supplies before I left for Liberia. It turned out that I didn't bring the suitcase, which would have put me over my two 50 lb. item luggage limit, but when I weighed the equipment and it came to 25 lbs, I realized I could reduce the rest of what I was bringing to 25 lbs. and not have to pay extra.

I asked my Jetro Web hosts to find a nearby clinic to which we could donate the supplies. It turned out their was a fairly new clinic just up the highway, so we walked from the office to the clinic to deliver them to the Fraternity Medical Clinic.
