Friends from Far & Wide

During Summer English I got to know Indonesian high school students from around Java and a group of college students from Colorado, and enjoyed seeing them get to know one another.  Here's a few more shots of our time together.
These are the leaders of our program.  They got to know one
another in a hurry as together they helped teach the participants.

The last night of our program we had a special celebration.  It started with a meal together, followed by a few musical performances, and naming of this years award winners, and finished with goodbyes & photos together.


In Lembang, a city close to Bandung, I accompanied the
group from the states to help with another youth program.
There we got to hang out with some more Indonesian
youth and join them in some fun activities for a few days.



Back in Bandung, we attended an Indonesian
wedding with our friends.  The ladies from the
States dressed up in traditional Indonesian dresses
and makeup, and we all enjoyed some wonderful
food!  To finish up our time in  Bandung we hung
out with some friends  at a restaurant overlooking
the city of Bandung.
