Day 16


Second day of classes so let’s hurry up leaving the children at school, eat an American Vietnamese breakfast and leave to our school.

Today it’s time to learn how to do facial massage and even if half of the lesson is theory I’m able to understand what’s happening by the examples the teacher give. I draw frenetically in my book with all the explanations in Portuguese… you know; who doesn’t have a dog hunts with a cat! (Portuguese proverb)

The second part of the class, the teacher exemplifies on a student. I’ve learned how to clean the face after a cleansing, how to wrap a towel and even what animals feel when they’re in a zoo. Not that I mind and, in fact, was really amusing but after the demonstration all my Vietnamese classmates were staring at me and asking Xuan questions about me. Guess my appearance scares a couple of them but my heart is as soft as butter…

Time to go get Till to the airport. We seat and wait, a couple of blondes pass by us and then there’s Till with a jacket and a long-sleeved shirt… I understand was cold in Frankfurt but c’mon! It’s 28º here!

Time to lunch, a little rest and a long walk with Till showing him around, in the middle we managed to talk a little bit about what’s happening in our lives and agreeing that I’m a big sister to him with authorization to kick his butt if doesn’t act like a grown up.

We go pick up Thach Tao and Phuc and they get so happy when they see their brother that I’m really sorry I hadn’t bring my camera to shoot it. We go for ice cream and then head home.

Dinner and bed as tomorrow we go to the temple in the countryside and we have to get up early.

Night night peeps!
