Co To Island

It’s about my trip last week.

First of all, I had a plan with Ryota and his Vietnamnese Japanese-Student friend to go to Ha Long Bay. But unfortunately, there was a miss understanding between Ryota and his friend, so we canceled our trip. But, the situation made us in a complicated condition, we had to take our trip this week or we had to wait until the project complete. So, Me and Ryota planned our trip to Ha Long Bay by ourselves, but fortunately Ryota’s host family sister boyfriend has already had a planned for a nice cheap trip, and we can join them. We invited all of interns and then Julia, Ghea, and Nastya joined us.

Shortly, on that trip we got many kind of problem,

1. The wrong address of Ryota’s host family sister boyfriend house, his name is Thinh, made some miss communication and emotional disordered.

2. Because of us (maybe) Ryota’s host family sister and her boyfriend broke up (her name is Huong). It was very sad, I never imagine a relationship destroyed because of me, because I never like a boy who has already in a relationship, but actually there are so many situation that can make it happen. And maybe it was because some miss understanding (i don’t like this word) -___-. And then we decided to leave this island ASAP.

3. For me, I broke my camera because I dropped myself into sea water. :( And I lost my phone charger. :((

4. We have been kick out from Co To Island. I’m tired if I have to tell all of the story, but It was my first time being kicked out. It was a bit nice and complicated, because when the Military men prohibited us to stay in Co To Island, all of problem already solves, and we already decided to stay in this Island. Huong and Thinh come back together, and the beach is very beautiful and nice.

5. It was already late, we had to stay in Ha Long city without any Vietnamnese, because the f*cking military men ordered to leave as soon as possible, we just got 30 mins to packing our things. :(

6. Fortunately, I read a book, and I remember some hostel which is recommended by that book. I just remember the name, Its Ho Tay, and we called information center. And double fortunately, this Hostel is very very nice and cheap, and we got good service, AC, TV, fan, hot water, softbed, etc. For information, Its very difficult to find such a nice confortable soft bed in Viet Nam. :(

7. Fortunately, we went to attraction park and had some fun. When lunch, I ordered a big plate of grilled roll noodle with beef, It was very delicious.

8. We got tricked by taxy driver, :( and had to pay 2 times the cost. And got trick by bus conductor, the price of bus is just 100.000 VND, but he said 150.000 VND. Lucky, I had already asked the price before to someone on the street, so then I complained and we just paid for 100.000 VND. 

Although we got many kind of problem, we had many wonderful time there. I’m glad that I joined this trip, because I can get know better about Julia, Nastya, and Ghea, and of course Ryota, the only boy on our trip. We had so many choco-pie time together, and bought a same T-shirt. It was my first experience lost in an Island with my friends, and I find that we can make every condition better by our way as long as there are wonderful friends beside us.
