Work, Work, Work and Work....

After our one-week working stay in Situbondo i honestly thought that we would be given at least two or so days off, but it turned out to be otherwise. These guys are really serious about what they do and we were actually loaded with work, school visits, presenting various presentations etc. Our work was taking place predominantly around the city of Surabaya and from time to time not far from Surabaya. The last job we did was in the school called SMK Manang, about 2-hour drive from Surabaya.

This school was just amazing, very green, students were very well educated about environment and teachers, more importantly, were an appropriate example of how people should take care of environment. In comparison with other schools, where they for instance lacked tap water, rubbish bins etc. and students actually did not consider environment to be important. This school was a great step ahead and we were so pleased to see that not everyone is indifferent towards the environment.
Immediately after our arrival we were given the best refreshments i have ever had in Indonesia and then we moved into the presenting rooms. I was presenting environmental education to teachers and my colleagues were presenting climate changes consequences to students. It was our last job so i really tried my best of the best and adequate results were delivered.

Well, as we were working for a few weeks on the bounce (sundays, saturdays included) without any break whatsoever, we decided to spend our holidays in the most well-known Indonesian spot called Bali. Yeah, we were going to Bali!!!
