The day in the Villages with our client was one of the best since I'm in Indonesia

We droved to a small fisher village where the women fish balls produce, at the beginning of our meeting we get a lot of food and tea from the women, first they where really shy. But latest after our chicken dance they had a really good vibration to us. Nitu has a lot of her bracelets with her and at the end of our meeting she left almost all. ;O)

 

 











On our way to the second village we stopped by a wedding preparation, a lot of people where there and now everybody can imagine what we have done with the people, YES the chicken dance ;O) 
Those 30 minutes with the folk was really great!
We where singing a lot of songs one from Austria  - a Jodler, and from India a nice song. The people where very excited the same as us!















Our next stop was in a village where the folk have never seen before a white women, at the beginning they where also pretty shy but after a dance of the tunes from the chicken dance the situation was also changed!
In this village we tasted salty eggs and some cakes made with flour. We also received a nice table mat hand-crafted. 






The last stop was in the leader house of another village, and he offered us a cold milk drink, the way to this house was very challenging because it rains the last days a lot over there, you can see it in my picture’s ;O)

They have at this time 5 students in the house they help them in educating the children, we compared some experiences with them and after this meeting our way back starts.







This day was for me one of the best since I’m here, It helps us a lot, because now we have a great relation to our clients!!!
