VJYE 2013 report 10
Such a wonderful cultural exchange!
@Thai Binh High School, Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam
https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?v=559671307415929
Nearly 30 Japanese and Vietnamese students have experienced such a wonderful
trip to the mountainous areas of Lam Ha District, Lam Dong Province, Vietnam. In
just 5 days, all the students did a lot of meaningful things such as organizing
a Studying Camp for local pupils, participating in a home stay program with the
residents or visiting the most beautiful scenery of the province.
We tried Bee wine, Olong tea, fish sauce, longan, 'pho', even
'fried crickets' and many many 'oishi' kinds of food in Vietnam.
The people welcomed us with such friendliness and we could
easily recognize their effort in making us feel like home. We had
such a great time, thank you so much for everything.
We will miss you, Vietnam!

Listening music and thinking...
Having many best friends is so hard and keeping in touch with them is so difficult...
Someone comes then leave. Some people that we have just met and worked with some days
but left so many unforgettable memories.
How can I express my feeling now???
There is a saying that everybody meets each other because of the fate.
And... of course, I believe in that Sayounara_VJYE 2013!

Message from the Participant
Impressive feedback on the VJYE 2013 from one of the
Vietnamese Participants, Mr. Nguyễn Tùng Sơn.
"Time you enjoy wasting is not wasted time“
It's hard to believe that we just finished unforgettable 10 days journey together, we had so many sweet memories
and also meaningful experiences in Viet Nam. This is an opportunity for us to enhance our friendship, our team
spirit. That makes us more mature and well-adapted now and we can face in difficulties totally easily in the future.
I remembered the first day of us, we were strangers and so shy but after 10 days living together, we were not
strangers anymore but now we are the family with 20 people from 2 countries. After this program, we can learn a
lot of knowledge about Viet Nam and Japan through education and culture exchange day. Additional, We had truly
memorable 4 days field trip in Lam Ha Province, experienced cultural night, fashion show and home stay with local
people. We mutually explored the nature by visiting cricket garden, tea farm, elephant waterfall. Last but not least,
we find it easy to get along with each other by "secret buddy" game, each people have to take care another one, it
makes us more solidary. All of our memories like a gem, we can't find in anywhere.
In fact, our program ended but our friendship will last forever. We say thank you to each other and moving to tears
at closing day. Happy tears bring us close together and we want to stay some more days in Viet Nam. However, I
strongly affirm that in Viet Nam, whenever you want to come back, just come here. Vietnamese people will widely
spread their arms to welcome all of you guys.
Finally, I would like to give my great honor to all of you guys. Thanks for your friendliness, your kindness and your
presents for all of us, thanks for making our life become sparkling and unforgettable. We'll keep your presents
carefully. You're so friendly and active, always keep smiling and believing, you can make miracles. Further, I wish all
of you have a good health and achieve wonderful success in your life. We're always your friends
"We believe in the future, we believe"
