| Report | Here is the report from NIS! Thank you for having us. It was a great experience. When we arrived in Bangkok, we were welcomed by Pin. She took us to our work town, Rayong. She showed us around that night and we spent some time at the market. After a good night, we were ready for work. The next morning Art was there to take us to our working site, It has been a tough week, working under extreme weather conditions. We all worked very hard. But we were happy doing it. The worksite was very safe and the owner always had something for us to munch on. Every night we had something planned, we got time for great thai massages, shopping and visiting sites. On Friday, we visited a local school and spent an afternoon with lovely kids who spoke great English surprisingly! We also decided to spend a day on Samed Islands and it was lovely. Like our reward after all the hard work. We stayed at a very nice hotel that was localted about 10 minutes from downtown. Hotel Madina has big and clean rooms. The breakfast is buffet style, perfect for those growing teenagers. The students loved it and the teachers too: not being in the center was good, we didn't worry about the students getting out at night. All together, it was an amazing experience. The house dedication ceremony was very touching. The best comment came from a student: "they give us more than what we give them." Right there we knew the trip was worthwhile. On behalf of NIS, thank you so much. |
