#Acicis20 for Indonesia and Australia

Have an international experience is great thing on life. As we live in Jogja which is well known as cultural, education and tourism city, much tourist always come from all around the world throughout the year. For person who has passion in international issues, wants to learn foreign languages and also learns something new, this is the right time and chance to grab.
Sometime people is startled to see that I have no background in international affairs or communication studies, but mine is agro-industry. Seems odd maybe??
The latest event to join is to be volunteer on Acicis’s birthday event held in Jogja on August 28th to 30th 2015. As consortium between Indonesia and Australia, we feel delighted to be given this great chance. Together with some Australians (also Scottish and New Zealander) we work together from pre-event until the last day.
What we actually get? Of course experience and relation are much important than money. We didn’t look for paid activity because we got advantages by entering all events for free hahaha it is great.
Speaking english is a must and understanding each other especially we just knew each other. We have to adapt quickly. Fortunately, all volunteer is easy-going person and easily to adapt, then some volunteers are able to speak Indonesian. Looks wonderful. It totally boosts to improve our english ability. 
Working for 3 days since morning until late night actually made us feel totally tired. But as long as we made for fun, then there was no exhaustion at all. We enjoyed during the event. Instead of we took photo together when we had dinner event. Sounds interesting because we got an experience to have a dish in wonderful place.



At the end of event, finally we knew each other better. Not only for fellow volunteer, but also with staff and some guest. It is really big advantages to gain. Much more important than get paid. 
Another thing to remember is we are being family afterwards. It doesn’t matter whether we come from same background or different, as long as we are aware of international issues and friendship especially between Indonesian and Australian which could be useful for the future. Yeah! To build the great relation for both countries..
Here we feel so thankful to be chosen and trusted as volunteer, also for unforgettable experience. Great job lads! See you on top!
