One of my friends from VIA, Gillian, had a pretty horrible experience in her town. Another VIA Indonesia friend Marisa, wrote about it on her blog and I think I am just going to link her entry because she sums it up pretty well and her feelings are quite similar to mine. Here's the link.
Rest assured that I feel safe here in Ponorogo and that nothing like this has happened to me at all. Gillian's town is on a different island, very far from me. I am very rarely alone and I don't think there's much opportunity for something like this to happen to me here, but it still freaks me out a bit and it's just so so sad. I think I'll write more about the cultural differences and being a foreigner here later.
