My name is Nicole Halla and as an uprising junior and spanish major at USC I have come to realize that there will never be a time in my life when I stop learning Spanish. Language is a beautiful extension of one's identity and I love communicating with people in their native tongue. In high school I had the opportunity to serve in Nicaragua on several missions trips and it was there that my passion for the Latin American culture grew. I love every aspect of the latin american culture-the history, the food, the land, the language and the people. Although I have no medical experience nor do I know a lot of medical terminology, I am excited about serving the people of Bolivia and learning how to extend the love of Christ through gentle touch, gentle words, and sweet fellowship.
