Exciting start to beautiful Singapore!
After a long travel day, everyone arrived in Singapore where we were able to spend a few hours exploring the Jewel at the Changi Airport, which is home to the world's tallest indoor waterfall. We are excited to welcome students from all over the United States as well as South Africa, Indonesia, and Mexico! We spent the evening settling in and getting some rest as we adjust to the time difference. Today we were able to visit our classroom for orientation and a welcome lunch at Putra Minang before heading to the National Museum. The students enjoyed learning about the history and culture of Singapore.
We are adjusting to the hot and humid weather, but luckily we have the pool to cool us down. Everyone has been enjoying trying new foods, and we are excited to dive into classes and for the upcoming activities!
