On this day September 8,2019 I am always happy waking up in the morning receiving greetings from my brothers in the dorm and having breakfast with them too in the dining room. Today I am going to have my last city tour with my co-SEA Teachers, Ragil and his family. I picked up in dorm at around 9:45 in the morning our destination is in Bogor City. Ragil told me that there is a place where we can see a miniature of some tourist spots from Europe, it makes me so excited because It was also my dream to travel to some European countries.
The place name is Devoyage in Bogor City. It takes some time to be there while on our way going to Bogor I decided to take some sleep first to have more energy walking and walking around the place. We arrived in Bogor at around 11 a.m. While preparing ourselves I already saw the tip of the mini eiffel tower inside Devoyage and it makes me more excited to go inside. We first fall in line to buy for a ticket so we can enter the Devoyage.
Inside the Devoyage was nice and beautiful. Everything is so lovely and colorful from the building structures, from the designs and even the flowers is so nice to see. We decided to take a lot of pictures in different spots inside the Devoyage. It was so fun walking around taking pictures and taking videos around the whole place. After a long walk and fun moments we decided to finish our tour in the devoyage. We took some photos individually and also some photos together. This tour was so fun and and meaningful for me. Not just because we go out and see some beautiful spots but also I was able to end my tour with my new family Ms.Jelyn, Ms.Christine and Ragil and his family.
After going out of the Devoyage Ragil’s family bring us to a mall in Bogor where we take our lunch. We eat on KFC which is my favorite fast food chain in Indonesia. Everything was so nice to see, Ms.Jelyn is so surprised because the chicken in KFC is so spicy she was sweating while eating and always say “it was so spicy “,”it was spicy”,’the chicken is spicy”. We take some rest first at the mall before going home. It was so early to go home so Papa decided to bring us to a park and have some road trips going around the Bogor. We saw a lot of good scenery around Bogor and we enjoyed taking some pictures of it too.
For all my tours I enjoyed it a lot but my last tour was just so memorable.I go out with one of my family in Indonesia together with my co-SEA Teachers from the Philippines. I am so so so happy and grateful for all my experiences in all my tours. Everything was so meaningful and so memorable for me. We decided to go back to PKP again after a long day tour. Ragil’s family bring us back to the dorms and I thank them a lot because they loved me and treat me as their family too. I give them a good greetings and a hug too so I can give back to them also. This memories were memories that I will cherish for a life time.
When I go back to dorm I walk straight to my room. I take shower and change clothes. After a long day I have my own time to remember everything that happened in my last tour. I am so so so happy but sad at the same time but I know it is part of my journey. I suddenly feel so sad and I cried a lot because I am so thankful on what in my stay here in indonesia but sad because I will go back to Philippines so soon and had to leave my new family in Indonesia.
After a long day and after everything that happened to me I never forget to thank our Lord God for everything He gave to me and to everyone around me and that is the end of my tour around Indonesia as a SEA-Teacher.
