Friday 3rd October

Friday was a very active day. We woke up at 8 o’clock. We went to school to finish the experience reports for Xplore. After finishing the assignment we went to the beautiful place called Ceking to see the rice terraces. When we arrived in Ceking we get split in three groups, the profit, planet and people groups. First we had to made research questions together, those questions we ask to the farmers to know about the rice fields. When we finally finished making questions, we went down to find a farmer to ask all the questions we made. After a small search one of the Balinese students found a farmer in a small house. It was hard to get to the house because it was slippery and there were some steep parts of the hill. When we finally arrived at the house, the Balinese students nearly killed the man with all our questions. After each question the Balinese students translated the answer for the Dutch students because we maybe knew some other questions to ask. After all, the farmer tried to sell one of his hats to us. Hanneke bought one because we broke his house by leaning against one of the bars.

After that we went back up by another way, which was not the best way because the hills we had to pass was really steep. But after a little struggle against nature we were up and assembled with the Profit group, we are Planet. Up on the hills we had some time to buy a drink or a souvenir. After that we went back to a place were the bus could pick us up. After that we went to the “Holland House” the swim and have dinner all together.
