The very last moment in Indonesia..

As i am writing this report, i am actually staying in Indonesia for the last day. It is hard to believe, but the entire 3-month "double the fun" program came to an end. I would be lying if i said that i was not worried about various maters before i set off for this amazing journey such as accommodation, security in Pakistan, humidity in Indonesia, cultural differences, dealing with local people and so forth. However, honestly, despite certain difficulties, this is probably the best thing i have ever done. My worries turned out to be meaningless, everything was just fine, people were very kind and understanding! Food in Pakistan and Indonesia was so yummy, it just reassured me that i am really addicted to Asian food! Other than that, experiencing different ways of how things are done from various perspectives is just mind opening!! In Indonesia i was experiencing significant differences in living standards through many places where i used to stay. As the final stage i was accommodated in one home-stay family, they all were very lovely and kind to me. Although, i was initially shocked with certain differences in living standards, you have to go through everything to recognize that it is not wrong, it is just different. And that's the main purpose of such programs, to open one's mind in many ways.

I would strongly encourage everyone to undertake similar AIESEC programs, it literally is an eye opening experience!! As a matter of fact, i probably met my soulmate in Indonesia!! Yeahhh!!

If you guys have any question regarding anything what has been mentioned throughout my reports, feel free to contact me on my email: benda.martin@yahoo.com.au

Thanks heaps AIESEC - University of Queensland for making this DtF program happen whereby my life experience has been enriched significantly and also mind has been opened in many ways!
