Bakti Desa

In last January, my friends and I went to Cibereum village for Bakti Desa or Bakdes. In Bakti Desa, we live in villager's house and help them to work. We lived there for 3 days and 2 nights.

We went to Cibereum by angkot, it is 3 hours away from Bandung. As we arrived there, we went to Balai Desa for the opening of this event. After that, we went to our house. We were separated into some groups. I, Cipo, Amara, and Mine lived in Bu Omah's house.

In the evening, we went to Mosque around there. We taught and played games with children around there. After maghrib, we went home and ate dinner with our houseparents.

On the second day, we went to the hill for took care of our parent's plant. They are farmers. Their land was very far from our house, but we were very happy. We went back home before Jum'atan. At around 3 o'clock, we held bazzar that sold clothes and books for free. After that, we played games with children until at 5. And then, we went to red bridge and 'bukit teletubbies'. After maghrib, we went home for dinner.

Last day, we went to Situ Cisanti. It is very very far from our village and we went there by foot. But, the scenery was very beautiful so we forgot about the distance. After that, we went back home and say goodbye to our houseparents and Cibereum village.

It was a very valuable experience. We were very happy and we would love to come back there.
