On August 10-11, 2019, we, UBU IR staff, exchange students, students from Lukhamhanwarinchamrap School and Vichitra School took part in The 9th UBU Language and Culture Camp in Ban Phu Village, Mukdahan. There we got to know one of the Thai villages which is very thick with local Thai culture. Our first agenda when we arrived at the village was to gather in the hall for introductions, we played games to memorize each other’s names by mentioning the names of the people in front of us, after that we toured the village to know the culture in Ban Phu and make videos that would we present tomorrow. In the village of Ban Phu, we visited weavers, rice mills, body scrub, wood carve and saw cattle farms there. After the event we continued to put our belongings in the home of our foster parents who were the native people from the village, after that we come back again to the hall because there would be a welcoming ceremony in the form of dances and after that eating together and finally culture exchange. After the culture exchange event was over, we returned to our foster parent homes to take a shower and rest. The next day, on August 11, we made a presentation about the video we had made and when we were finished we got ready to go back to the dormitory
