Emily Sarah May Davies, Wales

Being able to travel half way around the world from Wales to Banda Aceh was an amazing first time experience for me.

The country is so welcoming, the culture and way of life is fascinating as well.

Hearing the facts about the Tsunami is really shocking, the number of people killed and houses/buildings destroyed. The whole experience so far has been really educational. To see how the money that we have raised has been and will be spent is really interesting and it is interesting to see how the people of Banda Aceh have benefited from the money. One example was visiting the reconstructed schools, to see the children playing football, enjoying school made me feel happy that I raised money that was well spent. I’d like to take this opportunity to thank Education International for the amazing life time experience of the tour of Banda Aceh and hope that all is well for the future.

Regards,

Emily
