The study center

Each morning 07.00 I eat breakfast in the hotel restaurant. Then I head out on a 3km bicycle tour trough the rice fields on my way to school.

The study center is situated comfortably a couple of kilometers outside town, on an artificial island with its own restaurant and library. I can't think of anywhere else I would rather spend my day than at the studycenter. Since it is outside the city there are almost no trafick or pollution. The island is covered with palm trees and shrubs and have a artificial pond in the middle. The lecture room is a bamboo construction with electricity and removable walls if it should get to hot. Half way in every lecture one of the very nice staff brings coffe, tea or lemonade to the lecture room.

The campus is just 200m from the beach, so when we got time we take the provisional ferry ( the bridge was destroyd in a tyfon last year) over the lagoon and walk the last meters down to the beach. At the beach I usually rent a beach-chair under a bamboo parasol and consume a pineapple bought from one of the verry manny, but very nice, vendors. The sea is a bit salty, but nothing is like a swim after a long day at school.
