On the last week of November, 2018, I heard a news from the English Department of my college that there were two slots open for exchange students. I knew at that moment that I wouldn’t dare to take the chance. I knew for myself that I wasn’t fit for that. But just like a whirlwind, I found myself applying for the slot. I don’t know what had gotten into my mind. Was it the place? The experience? The curiosity? I don’t know. I just ended up completing all the needed requirements. The next thing I know, it was already time to depart from my home town. It was a long travel to get to my destination. And during the journey, I tried to keep my mind shut from overthinking things – things that questioned my ability to teach and socialize with other people. I tried to shrug it all off. What I kept my mind was that I would just ride with the waves and let the waves lead the way to the shore. I left my country and arrived at Thailand with a clean state – letting every new thing and thought enter in mind with the hope that it would improve who I was.
