In 2015, the Cuthbertsons are headed off on a big adventure.  Cris finishes up at The Northern Hospital at the end of January, and are moving to Tansen, a rural town in Nepal to work in a  hospital run by United Mission Nepal (UMN). Cris will attempt to keep this blog current as a record of our travels, and we hope you can travel alongside us.
