Farewell Dinner

That night we were all sad to be eating our final dinnner in China. Our ten days had passed in the blink of an eye. We each gave a short, impromptu presentation about what we had learned from the trip and what we hoped to bring back home. The Indians surprised us with some amazing presentations, singing and performing in Hindi. After dinner, the celebration turned into a dance party when the Indians shared some popular Hindi music. By the end of the night, none of us could believe we were getting on planes the next day to take off for different parts of the world.



Once back at the hotel all of the Global Citizens gathered for an after-party celebration. Jason and Max actually moved one of the beds out of their room to clear space for all twenty of us. Jason, Diviyanish, and Abhishek experimented on Abhishek's new guitar and the rest of us sat around until the early hours of the morning, exchanging contact information and talking. None of us wanted to go to bed, knowing that it was our last night together.
