I finally got to walk on the beach in Okinawa after having been here for almost a week now!
Beach combing was the first activity of the day and it was my first time at it. It really gave me a sense of accomplishment after cleaning the beach, knowing that it was worth every drop of sweat! π
It was also interesting how we could find garbage from neighbouring countries on Okinawan beaches but it reminds us that we should always manage our own trash responsibly as well.
After lunch, we had a lecture on Education of Sustainable Development. The professor placed a lot of emphasis on education as the fundamental way of solving global environmental problems and I think we can all start on education by telling our friends and family all that we have learnt during this program. Even though it might seem small but simple actions will go a long way π
Our first mid-term presentation is gonna start tomorrow!!
Loving every bit of Okinawa,
