Just as they call it a \"land of smile\" I was surorunded by a lot of smiles everyday. Several of them had hosted Japanese GV teams and often tells me \"all Japanese teams were good teams and I had great memories about them.\" I am treated so well and kindly welcomed here and I feel that it is thanks to the good relationships HFH Japan and the volunteers had build over the past years.<br \/>\nI am a \"Japanese CSR Officer\" here and responsible for PR and fundraise with Japanese companies and communities. I will be making PR materials in Japanese, actually visiting companies for presentations and hosting coordination for the Japanese GV teams. However, I have quite important responsibility for a student intern and I have some worries for how much I can do.<br \/>\nEverytime I feel pressured, I ask my self \"what is there waiting for me after this work and worries?\"<br \/>\nThat is, the result of Habitat's work to provide people in need the chance to self-help.<br \/>\nThat is, the way to reach my dream career in peace building and international development industry.<br \/>\nThen that also is, learning to contributie for the easier operation and understanding on philantropic activitists in Japanese society.<br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"CIMG2471seg.JPG\" src=\"https:\/\/habitatjp.org\/enblog\/CIMG2471seg.JPG\"align=\"right\" width=\"376\" height=\"293\" \/><br \/>\nI see how everything is conected this way and I am not left alone here. Some things might be tough on my but they must have the end where I can reach if I tried working hard at it. Next month I will start approaching the Japanese companies so that I am studying as much about Habitat Thailand and the communities they are working with.<br \/>\nI am scheduled to stay here till September and reporting the news and activities regulary. See you soon!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Everyone in Japan, Sawadee Ka! Now I am writing this in Bangkok, Thailand.
