One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

*During i've joined CS,i've been through so many things! I've already couch so many people even though most of them aren't CS member. And from that,the best thing that i really like is i can see a different character from any other people from each country! I can learn some languages n also another culture from them. I just like to make an international friendship! :)

*Traveling in some countries in Asia is one of the amazing thing i've done in my life. I've travel alone with backpack style n have met so many nice people from the other part of the world. This moment has changed my life into a better person.

*Another amazing things i've seen n done is when i go to India!! this country change my perspective about life so much. I've seen the best and the worst things in India. I was attending Indian wedding which is one of my desire to go to india, i was dancing n wearing Sari and i was watching bollywood movie in Varanasi! though i don't speak hindi but the antusiasm of local are amazing! They are clapping when it's happy, crying when it's sad, singing when there's music in it n yelling when the actor fight, and This make me love India. i'll comeback there for sure.

*getting help by a nice n kind people while i lost my wallet, cellphone n camera in a train in India. I didn't hv money at all, n this man helped me to go to the airport as i have my flight after that. Bless him :)

*Getting a wrong train to new delhi instead of kolkata. And people are helping me so much by giving me food while i am panic, and they are helping me how to get out from the wrong train hahaha!

*being in the middle of Indian mans in a super crowded train. I was standing surrounded by mans n they were staring at me all! no woman n no seat!

*got robbed in Vietnam by taxi driver and having negotiation in taxi while he grab my bag which is i have everything inside. Lucky, he gave my bag but i have to gave him all my money :D

*I found my self have nothing when the bank blocked my ATM card. For 3days, i was getting helped by my new friends in Vietnam for food n credit to call the bank. At the end everything was back to the track :D

People said "not a real traveler if u're not facing those problem in another country. Somehow, it makes u wiser in life n u can measuring ur self about how strong u are in this crazy yet beautiful planet"

People also said "if u been to india before, got robbed n got a wrong train n u can survive, then u'll be oke in another country. u've passed the real traveler test" hahaha!
