Hello we are Dave Tay and Joseph Lim and we are here to blog! This are some pictures to arouse your interest before we start.
 
Day 3 was an early day and we had an early breakfast as we had a school visit to Bui Thi Xuan high school in Dalat. We were excited to attend the school as we were able to meet the vietnamese students. We were warmly welcomed by them and the introduction of the school and of Dalat allowed us to understand their pride in the country. They put up a performance which contained of a dance and a song. We had a question and answer session and through this we understood more about their life as a student and their school curriculum. They were very friendly during interaction and we had a chance to attend one of their lessons. Unfortunately, their teacher's computer was not working and thus that lesson was used for interaction between the student. We then bade farewell and made our way to the next destination.
Next, we went to the Strawberry where we learned how they cultivated strawberries. It was a nice hands on experience as we were given the chance to pluck the strawberries.
 
 
Next, we went to the Lat village to do our CIP project which was one of the main objectives of the trip. On arrival, we got a briefing and introduction by the village chief. He was relatively fluent in his languages and he could even speak French. Our objective was to build a barrier which was to protect the village from wild animals.
Here's one of the reflections of our group member, Reynold.
" It was very meaningful. The villages used primitive tools to construct the barrier. It shows that the villagers were very creative in maximising the tools that were available. We put in a lot of hard work. The village chief kept encouraging us and helped us when we were unable to chop the wood. With the united effort we were able to finish a large part of the barrier."
On the day 3 was a very meaningful and fufilling day and we also enjoyed ourselves and learnt much from it.
xoxo, With LOTS OF LOVE, David Tay and Lim Kiat We
