The reason why i like trip is because i get to experience other culture; learn more about the vietnam culture and do lots of activity such as the rice planting and interacting with the vietnamese

# data[].attributes.body
What I like about this trip is experiencing a new way of life in a different country. I also like meeting new people like the Vietnamese students. They showed loads of friendliness and enthusiasm everytime they see us. This is also showed especially when we were tasked to teach them.

# data[].attributes.body
What i like in this trip is all the new experiences that i gained. I am able to experience new things such as rice planting, interacting with people with a language barrier and the cu chi tunnel. I learnt a lot about vietnam. I also made new friends and bonded with them.

# data[].attributes.body
What i like about this trip is that it allows me to gain more confidence and improve my interaction skills for myself through the english teaching session for the local student at the local school and also allows me to learn more about the vietnam culture and history. This trip is trutly the best trip ever and i learn lots of new things and make new friends through this trip . I seriously appreciate the teachers and anyone who plan for this trip . Thank you for making this trip possible!

In this trip, i experienced what rice planting is like. I am now able to further appreciate the effort put behind the rice that we eat everyday. I am also grateful that i live in singapore where i feel safer and more comfortable.

I don't think there is a lot to be improved as i thought the trip is very enjoyable. However, i think there should be more time for us to spend our money.

# data[].attributes.body
what i liked about the trip was that we were able to experience many new things in this trip like the rice planting and visiting the school, which was the most memorable activity for me. i have really enjoyed this brand new experiences in Vietnam and made wonderful memories here. even though at the start i felt like coming here was honestly going to be wasted, i definitely would not regret coming to Vietnam

I like meeting the Vietnamese students as I got to interact with them and understand their culture and practices better. I also like the variety of Vietnamese food as I thought that they were delicious and interesting. Personally, I like the bread served to us during breakfast at the last day. The right way to eat the bread was to dip it with condensed milk which I thought was really sweet.

# data[].attributes.body
I like the activities that was carried out during this 5D4N trip . I enjoyed tasting the different kinds of food and learning about Vietnamese culture . I also enjoyed the company in the school we visited . The students were very friendly and outgoing . Apart from that , i find the activities , rice harvesting and learning how some of the dishes are made , a unique and interesting experience that cannot be found in Singapore .

# data[].attributes.body
I like all of the activities throughout this whole trip especially when i went to the local school for via because the students were all very very outgoing and made the effort to learn english so that they can communicate with us. During the via, we interacted with the students, talk and explain to them. Through that, we bonded with the vietnamese students. They also wanted to take photos with us and want us to write our names when we were painting the fence because they want to remember the people that painted their fence (or 'adding colours into their life' -Megan).

# data[].attributes.body
Something i can take away from this trip is the unique experiences for the past 5 days. From the rice planting to the visits to Nguyen Khuyen School to also the foods we can never get at Singapore. At first , i felt a little home sick and overwhelmed with the completely different conditions in my surrounding me. But without a doubt, i definitely would not want to leave this country. What i treasured was the bond that i developed through this trip, through the activities andd bus rides.

# data[].attributes.body
What i liked from this trip is that through this trip,we were able to teach the less fortunate students in vietnam about our Singapore culture.Also,through the fence painting,we were able to make the school more brighter and colourful for the students to have a better environment

# data[].attributes.body
what i like about this trip is that it gave me many chances to experience different types of activities such as rice planting . Such activities are not available in singpore and i am glad to experience it. Also this trip also allow me to bond with others from other UG groups and i am glad to make new friendships.

# data[].attributes.body
During the VIA Project, my group did the teaching of English to the students. The way the students responded made me think of how fortunate I am to be educated. It made me appreciate the way I am living now. Thus, this was the sense of gratitude I felt during the trip.

This trip has opened my eyes to new activities and surroundings, me being an introvert, i surprisingly enjoyed this trip as I decided to open my boundaries and experience new experiences. Thus, I enjoyed this trio.

I learnt to make new close bonds with the Vietnamese students and these increased my sense of gratitude as I was thankful for the pleasant memories they have given me. I also learnt how tedious rice harvesting was and this made me appreciate food more and I somehow show my gratitude by finishing up most of the food served to me now.

# data[].attributes.body
I learnt about appreciating what i have and to not take things for granted through the school that we visited and helped . The school's environment was very different from our school . They don't have air-conditoners and a big canteen like ours . When's it their recess time , they go home to have lunch unlike our school . They have to travel to and fro which is tiring but they still come to school with a positive mindset . We would complain about these things instead .

# data[].attributes.body
throughout this trip, i learnt to appreciate a lot more things like our fortunate lives that we live every day in singapore. i learnt about how rice was produced with the farmers and their hard work. also, at the war museum, i learnt about the cruel history that Vietnam had experienced and learnt to appreciate our lives more.

# data[].attributes.body
I liked the authenticity of this trip, and that it allowed me to interact and understand the history and current lives of the people in Vietnam. It was very fascinating and brought me a new perspective of Vietnam, which I previously overlooked as just 'another country'. I especially liked interacting with the students that we had an exchange with, and their excitement and joy was refreshing as well.

For VIA , we went to a secondary school near the rural area and it was in a sense, worn down. The fence were broken and rusty while ours were in great condition as it was maintained regularly. I tend to take it for granted but through the

Something that increased my sense of gratitude is through the rice planting . Through rice planting ,i have experienced the tough labour through planting the crops and also the hardwork of the farmers. Hence ,i have learnt to appreciate the rice planted and the food we have.

# data[].attributes.body
I have learnt about the culture of Vietnam and the life of the Vietnamese.I enjoyed the rice planting experience as we don't get to experience it back in Singapore.The Vietnam students were very friendly and welcome us very warmly.I have really gained many knowledge from this experience.

# data[].attributes.body
The rice planting especially showed me how much effort was put in even just a few grains of rice. It also showed me how much was at stake in being a rice farmer, which has brought me much gratitude to all the farmers that have worked so hard to plant and cultivate rice just for our consumption. I will make sure to eat up all my rice now!

# data[].attributes.body
I learnt some basic vietnam language.Some of students trying to interact us(singaporean) by showing some hand language.from there i learn no matter how hard they trying to talk,they didnt give up.

# data[].attributes.body
This trip has made me appreciate and be thankful for all the people who help make the food we eat. I have never thought back at how the people who made the food as I just eat the food. But this trip helped me think back.

if possible, i hope for the next trip that there will be more time to shop around. for this vietnam trip, we did have some time to shop but it was honestly quite short for a mall of that size and i wanted to shop a bit more to bus souveniers for my friends and family. However, there was time constraint and i could not buy much.

From this trip,i learnt the process of how rice was made and this allowed me to appreciate and cherish the things more as the process involves alot of hardwork put in in tough conditions such as planting the rice under the hot sun

out of 10, i would rate it 9. the only reason why i did not rate it 10 was because i regretted not
fully enjoying the experience in the school. other than that, this trip was honestly the best overseas trip i have ever went to. i absolutely have no regrets coming to this trip, getting to know more of the people in our school's UG,experiencing new things and lastly, just enjoying this well planned overseas trip

i experienced what rice planting felt like,it was a tough moment under the scorching sun,and if it was so tough for us,it must be uber harder for the farmers who work everyday to sell rice so that we can have the bowl of rice on our table,for that i am grateful.

# data[].attributes.body
Throug this trip, I got to experience the hardship that the farmers experienced. Because during the rice planting session i realised that it was not as easy as it seemed to be. The sun was scorching hot and my back was aching afher a period of time even though it was a short session. Thus I learnt how to be gratitude since rice cultivation is a complex process

I learnt alot from the 5 days in vietnam. From the rice planting,i learn how to appreciate every rice i eat because of how hard the farmers have to work to plant the rice and take care of the plant. They have to take care of the plant every single day and without their hardwork. We wont be able to get the amount of rice we get today

What I immensely enjoyed about this trip is that it's a great opportunity to spend more time with not only the people in our own CCAs, but members of the other UG groups too. During this trip, I made many friends not only with the Vietnamese students but with those in my VIA group and from the other UG CCAs like NCDCC and NPCC. I also enjoyed the fact that we were able to do something meaningful and interact with the Vietnamese students through VIA while also learning about the culture and history of another country outside of our own.

I learn that we should never take things for granted like every grain of rice is precious because it takes very long to plant the rice and not only that, the people planting have to make sure that the insects don't eat what they grow. This makes me to be more grateful of the food we eat, we should try not to waste any food.

I am afraid of new experiences so before we got to Vietnam I was regarding about going to Vietnam. After I got here I feel grateful for being able to do the actives like the Cu Chi tunnel, paddy field, school exchange.

There aren’t many things that I have enjoyed in this trip. But the one that interested me the most is the students in the local vietnam school and the scouts training on Sunday. They welcomed me and made me feel welcomed by putting their hearts into entertaining us and letting us learn about their culture

# data[].attributes.body
There's two experiences in particular that increased my sense of gratitude for my life in Singapore. First is the experience in the Cu Chi tunnels, where we learned about the hard lifestyle that the Viet-Congs had in order to retaliate and survive during the Vietnamese-American war. Second is the rice paddy field activity, where we planted rice under the hot sun, ankle-deep in mud. That farmers have to do that everyday for a living is a harsh reality behind the bowl of rice on our dinner table every day. This experience has taught me to never take for granted the fortunate life we live in Singapore.

There is one thing that made me be more grateful of what I have. And that is the visit to the vietnam secondary school.

i have learnt that rice planting is not easy and we should learn to appreciate the food we get to eat. during the school visits, i also realise that the students there were all very excited to see us. this makes me feel very privileged as unlike the students there, we have he oppurtunity to go overseas for an exchange programme.

# data[].attributes.body
During our values in action with out exchange school, i realised that ther school was not really well-maintained especially their school field, with their wire fence broken and rusty and their field filled with rubbish at the side. after experiencing this, it makes me feel privileged because our school is well maintained and very clean
