Position/Role
As a participant in the ISOP tour, I had a great time and learned a lot about the city I am studying in. I boarded a bus from the campus with other international students and started our journey. All I needed to do was to follow my teacher's lead enjoy this brand new city and explore to my heart's content.
Mini Report
First, we went to the park and the beach, where I enjoyed the beautiful sea view and tried some of the rides in the park. I also took some pictures of the colorful murals and sculptures that adorned the place.
Then, driving down the road, we went to the shopping center where I had some free time to browse the stores and buy souvenirs. I also ate some delicious food at the food court and chatted with some of the other students.
I had a great time on this trip and made some new friends from different countries. I also learned more about the history, culture, and lifestyle of Johor Bahru and appreciated its diversity and beauty. It was an unforgettable experience that I will always remember.
Self-Reflection
1. Communication Skills: I improved my intercultural communication skills by talking to students from different countries. We shared our hobbies, studies, families, and cultures. I learned some interesting facts and perspectives from them, and I also shared some of mine.
2. Adaptability: For me, this is a brand new country and a brand new culture, and I need to adjust myself as soon as possible to fit into the brand new atmosphere and enjoy the university campus and study.
3. Global Citizen: When I am in different cultures and countries, I realize that I am now a Global Citizen, and I should respect the local customs and cultures and try to contribute to the development of the local community, because this is my responsibility as a Global Citizen, to make every part of the earth a better place, and the life of every human being a better place, and I am obliged to do so.
