My experience in Bali so far has been really rewarding and educational. We have ventured to many exciting places that have given me the opportunity to immerse myself in the Balinese culture. My highlights of the trip thus far were learning the welcoming dance from Ayu, and being blessed at the Tanah Lot temple. The dance lesson was really fun and interesting especially after having watched a dance performance the night before. The visit to the temple was really exciting because we got to wade through the open waters in order to reach the temple to be blessed. (see above) Another aspect of this trip that has been really rewarding is getting to know my classmates and chaperones better, they are a great bunch of people! The people in Bali are extremely kind and caring and the atmosphere is unlike any one I have ever been in, I am very grateful for this experience.
