Going Dutch 2009
June 26, 2009Dear everyone,
This was an amazing experience. Being immersed in another country has given me a better understanding of the world we live in. It is so surreal to be here so far from home. I am so thankful for the eclectic mix of personalities and how well we all mended together. This was quite a bonding experience. Everyone got along so well and we could all go out as one group. Everyone here was so easy to talk to. The instructors were flexible and catered to our needs.
By now (the last week), everyone is so comfortable here. We can all get around and know how to navigate in and out of the city. Being here for a month, you really begin to feel a part of the culture and no longer a tourist. You don’t get in the way of the bike lanes and understand the nature of the flow of traffic which can be a little overwhelming when you first arrive here. I am so thankful for being able to partake in this amazing trip of a lifetime and making the friends that I did. I still can’t believe it went as well as I did and even my high expectations were surpassed by the reality of this trip. Thank you so much Emily for being such a great instructor!
