Reflection
During my conversation with my TalkAbroad partner, I learned many things, such as Colombia is the 22nd ranking country in the world for healthcare. I also learned that Colombia is similar to the United States in the healthcare field. When I asked how the hospitals were in Colombia, my partner replied that it depended on the area you were in and if it was a private or public hospital. Also, much like the United States, they have public and private health insurance, but you receive better care with private insurance, and it depends on which you get whether it will be a good insurance company or a bad insurance company. Lastly, we talked about how medical care was in Colombia, she said it was “Good in some cities…”
Speaking with my Colombian partner was eye-opening and showed me that countries may not be as drastically different as they have been shown to be in the media. It was an experience that I am grateful I was able to do. I have shared my experience with many people and they have expressed their interest in TalkAbroad. I look forward to using TalkAbroad in the near future again!
