Greg Marindra’s Stories

Global Walk

This is the main purpose why they invited us. This is annually event. It’s like cross country. Not only from Indonesia but also from China, South Africa, and Korea joined this event.

It’s very tiring….

But it’s fun because I can know Korean city by walking….

Even though we only passed small city (sub urban) but it’s big experience for me….

My journey to Korea end at Incheon, because my flight still 1 hour..so I can take a look around inside the airport….

So I have already been 2 weeks in Korea but It’s the best trip I’ve ever had….

Anyong gaseyo….Korea and my Korean friend (Jin Woo, Sun Young, Woong Ki) and my Chinese friend (Summer, Ruby, Ming Tha,Tony), South Africa friend (Leebone, Motshabi, Mr. Dingga)

Kamsahamnida….

After 2 months, I didn’t post in my blog, finally I’m back with a lot of stories..

My journey to Korea, it’s started when Mr. Suray (Head of Korean Dept) sent me sms. The sms said that I won the essay contest and I am selected to represent UGM to Korea.

I got invitation to Global Walk. This event is held by Hanseo University, Korea. Hanseo University is our partner in KKN (social development program for UGM student).

It’s my first time to go overseas. This trip started from Yogyakarta to Denpasar, It took 1,5 hours flight. Then I changed plane to go to Incheon, Korea. This flight was 6 hours. I stepped my first foot in a land outside Indonesia at Sunday, June 22^nd 2008 at 10.30 (local time).

My impression about Incheon Airport was very big and awesome…!!!!

They has train inside the airport, this train connect from my gate to place where I can take my carrier.

Outside the airport, we have been waited by Jin Woo, he’s student from Hanseo, he also came to UGM in last February.

He took me to take a look around in Incheon city, before we went to hanseo university. Hanseo is located in Seosan, it took 2 hours from incheon….

That day, I also met with Mr. Kim Seung Jae. He is one of the judges for the essay contest. We never met before, but he is the pioneer who build relationship between Hanseo Univ with UGM.

Second day….

This day, we got tour of Hanseo University, they also has separate campus, this campus is specialized in aviation, and the also have mini airport wit ATC (air traffic control ).

In this day we also met with President of Hanseo university.
