Introduction
For this project, we were separated in groups of 4-5 and take photos of the location chosen. For our group, we had decided to pick Japan as I was about to fly there for Activity Week. The photos and its captions must touch on four aspects: people, food, activities and culture.

intended learning outcomes of this assignment were to able to apply principle
of communications and behaviours in analyzing human interaction at the
individual and group levels as well as to be conscious of the importance of
cultural differences and respecting it. Other than that, healthy and positive
relationships with other students were to be built and communicate relevant
ideas in a clear, logical and appropriate academic English.
Through
this blog, I was able to learn how to communicate properly with other people of
different cultures even with the presence of language barriers. Throughout my
journey in Japan, I noticed a lot of details regarding the people, food,
activities and culture of Japan that could easily be missed or overlooked.
Although I was the only member of the group to go on the trip, my group mates
were highly cooperative in the creation of the blog as well as captioning the
pictures and participate during the presentation.

Through this assignment, I was able to further improve my spoken English and communicate my ideas effectively to my group members. Because all research materials were required to be compiled in a logical and systemic order, my documentation skills were improved through this assignment. Our group discussions throughout the duration of the assignment to be completed had strengthened the bonds between group members. From our research that we had conducted, we were able to learn and understand the foundations of a Minangkabau house and its details.

This assignment has been one of the most fun project that I've had ever done. It had allowed me to further improve my communication skills with my group members and express my ideas on the plot line and characters for this comic. Other than that, because we had to choose a suitable concept to be applied in the comic strip, my understanding of the topics learned in the module had further improved.
