I went to Singapore on my own for a ten-day summer course. There were about 15 students from China,
Malaysia, Cambodia, India, and Iran in the course. We were all so surprised about the cleanliness and discipline
of the country. On the second day of the course, we had special team-building activities. We worked in groups
of five from different countries to search for a location on a map that the school staff gave us. The time we spent
doing the activity together was really memorable. We discussed how to find the place. After four hours of
walking, taking the bus and metro as well as getting lost, we arrived at the destination. Over the remaining days,
we attended English lessons. We worked on projects and culture workshops. We discussed and shared our own
traditions and customs. During the time here, we also visited the Botanic Gardens, took photos in the orchard
garden and explored Chinatown where we bought souvenirs for our parents and friends. At the weekend, we
went to the Discovery Centre. We were impressed by the attraction and interactive gallery as well as the brilliant
learning experiences we had. After the trip, I felt proud of myself for being able to go without my parents and
leaving my comfort zone.
