For today’s blog, I’ll talk about my arrival on the 27th to what I did now. Waking up at 2:30 am on the 27th was probably the worst part, but I was able to sleep on the plane over here, so that was fine. It felt like the day was two days, probably since I went to bed at 11 pm and there was a one hour time difference, since I usually use eastern time. Yesterday was pretty nice, I really enjoyed the group activity where we put our ideas of a mobile app into a paper that was folded into quarters, I will probably remember this activity for the future. I also picked up a mini fridge for $25 from Facebook Marketplace, which was cool. Today was informative, I got to know my project mentors and we had lunch together, we went to a Thai place, I forgot the name. It’s been nice, I’ve been getting closer to those in this group and it’s starting to more open, even after a couple of days.
Side notes
- Tommy is really knowledgeable in birds
- Everyone here is really tall
Maybe your just short
Hi Johann, I can confirm that everyone here is tall (i’m 5’9 / 5’10) but I am not from here so not sure if it even applies lol. Also, I had the same experience with the flights, waking up at 2am and sleeping late. Where I am from it’s a 2-hour time difference.
Also, glad you got the fridge.
The fridge is definitely worth the $25.
I’m sure you are exhaused after the trip here! I’m glad you have had a nice time so far and scored a $25 fridge!
