The international students of UAD were very enthusiastic to their study tour on last Saturday, February 2^nd, 2013 at Elo river, Magelang. The rafting on the study tour was quite different to their trips before because it was more challenging. The international students of UAD coming from China, Egypt, England really enjoyed rafting though some of them could not swim at all.

Before starting the rafting all participants were given some instructions on how to paddle, the signs which would be given by the guide on the boat, and safety. Those international students listened very carefully and seriously. After that, they jumped on the boats and paddle enthusiastically as following the instruction from the guide. In the middle of the track their boats stopped a moment to take a rest while enjoying some traditional snacks and coconut. Then they continued their rafting to finish point. Along 12.5 km of the track, some of them fell into the river several times and some others consciously jumped into the river. They were really excited. Ahmed Basyuni, one of international students of UAD from Egypt said that he was really excited and hoped that next month there will be another rafting. (Eci)
