Day One Through Photos

Today was amazing, but totally overwhelming. We saw a lot of the city by going around to the different places we're each working. It's such a beautiful city with so much color and energy! I've already learned so much and everyone running our program has been so helpful! Since I'm so exhausted I'm just going to post some photos.

This is all of the AUA volunteers with some of our tutors and mentors.


This is my mentor Billa and the program director Didi buying fruit covered in chili sauce for us to try. Very delicious! Spicy, but sweet at the same time. 


Some of the street art in Jogja. The face is of a famous human rights activist who was killed during the authoritarian regime in Indonesia.


So many motorcycles! This is how most people get around, but it's very very dangerous. Traffic laws don't exist here.

An entire family on one motorcycle. Notice the son sleeping.


More street art. This one includes the famous shadow puppets from Jogja.


All of the AUA volunteers at an Islamic boarding school.
