Jepara International Workcamp #part 2

Hi guys!! I'll continue my post about my workcamp. (✿◠‿◠)
Anyway, Satomi had a style when she would do painting activity. Hahaha
Here it is. . .

Satomi's style

One day, after painting activity we were sightseeing around the village. We joined in the badminton match with the community and then we went to the rice field.

we had a pose in front of the rice field


As you know that teaching activity was tiring guys. ~̯~
We often took a nap before we painted.

Satomi slept well<(^^,)>

For two weeks we stayed in a host family's house. There were so many cats there!! (─‿‿─)

the atmosphere at night

We interacted with the children in our neighborhood

As I said you before that in my camp site there were a lot of cats! Here some special cats in my camp site. Hahahaha (〃^∇^)ノ

It's Sun Hwa's favorite cat

the cat's favorite place to sleep

This cat always slept in Jin's sleeping bag. So every night Jin slept with this cat. LOL.
I thought she didn't realize it. (*^ -^*)
It became a favorite cat because this cat was calm, it was so different with this cat.. 〴⋋_⋌〵

the crazy black cat

Yup! We called it the crazy black cat because it always screamed, yelled "MIIIAAAAOOOO" every morning, afternoon and even at night (>.<). So crazy!! By the way, there were so many mosquitoes too. Satomi got so many mosquitoes' bites.





mosquitoes loved Satomi

Jepara International Workcamp #part 1

Hi fellas!
I'm going to share to you about my first experience for an International workcamp.
On February 12 till 24, 2011 I had a work camp in Jepara, Central Java, Indonesia.
Actually, it was a year ago. I'm sorry it's too late. I'll try recall my memories to make a good story. (〃^∇^)ノ
By the way, I'll make it become three parts in order to make it simple and it would be a long story. Keep follow it. ヾ(●⌒∇⌒●)ノ
Ah, before I share it, if you don't know what workcamp is, I'll let you know.
Well, workcamp is.....

As your information guys, my friend, Satomi, is mastering in drawing and making origami. She draw the wall and we just helped her to paint it.
