We made a type of food that tasted alright but was fun to make.

We also visited the Chinese Learning Center at the University and taught a music classes various dances such as: the cha-cha slide, jump on it, and the Macarena.

DAY THREE

We spent the day with students from DG and TFSHS. We got to sit in two of their classes and the students were awesome.

Touring Tainan

We visited several historical sites of Tainan. The tour was a little too long but it was still cool to explore the city.

After a long day, we met the Vice Mayor on behalf of the Mayor of Tainan.

DAY FOUR

At their Thursday assembly, we sang Dui Bu Qi in front of the whole school.

Studying at DG

We attended two of our study buddies’ classes, Life Education and PE. In PE, we played volleyball and it was refreshing.

We even learned about different chinese festivals, calligraphy, stamping, and got to chill with the International students.

What a great trip!
