Translation of Spat

We drove towards the university where he studied and from there we drove to the hospital where he worked. He told me that there were hospitals for locals and for foreigners with different medical equipment and staff.
I also made a reservation for a daytrip in the nearby mountains. We went in the early morning and met again near the Huanchan road, close to the office. A ten-seater picked us up and we left.
Some of the people had invited me for dinner and I joined them. I soon found out that they were eating at their apartment and were cooking by themselves. I found myself peeling raw potatoes.
