Monday was our first official full day of work. We finally got our schedule for the next month. My first project is on Human Rights and Religion, which I will be presenting next Thursday. At night, we hung out with a British girl named Jordanne. She started her journey in India with a group of people in January, then continued to explore alone for the next four months. She encouraged me to travel alone and assured me that it's not lonely because you meet tons of new and interesting people along the way. Jordanne was an extremely brave person since she left her comfort zone and travelled across Asia to find inspiration for a jewellery line that she had started in London.
Tuesday was relaxing since we got a massage after work.
Wednesday was the most useful Bahasa class that we've had so far. We finally learned how to tell time and how to a taxi.

Today's been the most productive day of work so far. This morning Winona and I taught our first English class to the staff of Dian Interfidei. We focused on developing their conversational skills by talking about movies, books, and playing 20 questions. Towards the end of our lesson, two girls from Holland came to visit the office. They've been working in a small village about an hour away from Yogya. The two girls, both named Eva, are helping with empowering women. Winona and I instantly clicked with the girls, and are planning to meet up with them tonight for dinner.
I'm happy that things are finally starting to settle down in the office.
