Rodriguez Suarez Claudio Antonio from Venezuela said his driving motive was to cure more people and release their pain.
“I want to make better integration of Chinese and Western treatments, and make the oriental medical skills available to more people,” Claudio said.
As all the herbs he used before were dried and processed he showed great interest in the original shape of the herbs, which he described as “impressive”.
“It’s really a fun trip that deepens my feelings to always live and learn,” the Venezuelan youngster said.
