DAY ONE

We arrived in school at around 12 o'clock in the afternoon. All of us were pretty excited and ready to go. So, we got everything ready and took some pictures while waiting for the bus. It was pretty obvious how eager we all were to leave for Bintan. The bus arrived and we happily boarded it with much enthusiasm.





We left for Tanah Merah Terminal and arrived in Bintan safely. The place was nice and quite clean. Then we reached the hostel and were all so thrilled by how big it was. It was really spacious and to our surprise, the matresses looked really nice and comfortable =)



So after checking in, our guide gave us a simple presentation on their community work for the people living in Bintan. After that, we went for dinner. All of us were pretty hungry and excited to eat. We were brought to this place that was decorated with a nice "sunset" background and there was a big screen too. There was also music playing and all of were really impressed.



The food arrived we all started eating while the chinese music played. It was a nice dinner and after that, we walked back home. It wasn't really far but it was very dark. But when we looked up, we saw plenty of stars and we were so captivated by them too (haha).




We reached home and took our baths. We also had reflection time and it was really nice to gather around and just share our thoughts and feelings. After that, we prepared our lesson for tomorrow and had a good rest!
