Now, I came back to Bali again since the beginning of September.
I have been busy these days so sorry for not uploading lately.
It was really sad to say goodbye to people in Bandung.
I can’t believe I’m not seeing them anymore.
In Bali, I saw Kekak dance in Pura Luhur Ulu Watu, Kintamani and mountain. I also went to Padang-Padang beach.
Every place made me feel the culture of Bali and I feel it was wonderful places.
Two days till leaving, I home stayed to my friend’s house. Host father was going on a fast so I couldn’t talk that much but I talked a lot of things with host mother and my friend, Astryd. The topic we discussed the most was of course , religion.
Astryd is going to study abroad to Japan from September so she asked me a lot of questions. She is excited about going to Japan, but also she has worries too, like if there is a need to take off Hijab when doing part time job, or whether school cafeteria has Haral meals.
Incidentally, she has already installed HMJ app. So happy…
It seemed like she heard the app from Japanese.
“When you enter a country, it goes without saying that you obey to rules. Although, mutual understanding and cooperative attitude is also important.”
Astryd told me this.
I have many friends of Muslim, and I often feel they have flexibility for understanding intercultural differences. I hope Japan to be able to make a society that can respect their attitudes.
For now, all of my schedule for this trip has finished.
In the next article, I’ll write about thing about my trip.
