Alex Hofstader’s Reflections



This trip from start to finish has been an amazing experience. Starting in Singapore, we learned so much about the culture and where the city got its name, as well as visit hawker centers where we all got to eat amazing, authentic cuisine. We then went to bhutan where we learned about Buddhism, fortresses, and monasteries that were built centuries ago. We got to view the National sport of archery and enjoy a hot stone bath. After bhutan we went to Malaysia, specifically Kuala Lumpur where we got to see more city life as well as an orphanage where we got to make people happy. We then went to Penang where our trip concluded and we got to go on the world's steepest gondola which is a 42 degree angle.

I’d like to appreciate all of the tour guides that helped make this trip possible and fun. I'd like to thank my parents for funding this trip and always looking in my best interest. I’d like to thank the people in Bhutan who graciously let us learn about their culture and loaned us their hot stone baths. I’d like to thank everyone at Denver academy for helping to make this trip happen, especially the teachers, who made sure everyone was safe. I’d like to thank all of the hotels for letting a group as large as ours stay at their establishments.
