The World is Our Classroom ~ The Journey Our Teacher
By: Franki Maestas-Chavez
We arrived in Taipei, Taiwan at 5:00 o’clock in the morning. Our next flight wasn’t until 9:00 a.m, as we found our gate and got settled in, some of the group went to explore the airport and some stayed to rest some more. When everyone came back, we played uno and talked about what we did/watched on our 14 hour flight we had just gotten off.
We boarded our plane and got ready for a quick 5 hour flight. We arrived in Bali around 3:15; we went through immigration and got our passports stamped. We got our luggage and went to find Wayan, the owner of our home stay.
As we drove to Ubud, an hour drive, we were all amazed by the buildings, the incredibly hectic traffic, and the environment that surrounded us. As we got to our home stay we met the workers and family and got settled into our rooms. We cleaned up and got ready to go out to dinner. We ate at Tutmak, all of us ordered fried noodles with chicken, while the adults ordered other things.
It was 9:00 pm when we got back home, we met friends of Zenia and Gaylon, they had fried bananas to give us. We then got ready for bed. It was a long day but we managed to pull through even though we were really tired.
