You’ll also find travellers sharing their Work the World stories on social media too. Just search #worktheworld or take a look below...

A bit of variety on 3rd week of my #WorktheWorld radiography placement in Nepal: CT reporting, operating theatre (finger amputation and hip replacement) & visit to see facilities in a different hospital (incl mammography). Time is flying! #studentradiographer pic.twitter.com/GEu3ylrLMq

What an amazing final day in the Ayurvedic hospital! I've helped plant trees in the new herb garden with the military, learnt about pressure & massages and helped teach a german tourist group about Ayurvedic medicine and the hospital! #worktheworld #travelsrilanka @NursingUoW pic.twitter.com/F9q6JBrwtm
