Habitat for Humanity International – or Habitat – is a non-profit organisation that

helps people in need build houses. Since 1976, volunteers for Habitat have served more than
600,000 families worldwide. According to Habitat, however, there are still more than 1.6
billion people in the world without decent housing. In the article below, Mariko Asano talks
about her experience as a Habitat volunteer. She has travelled to the Philippines three times
to help build houses for people who need them.

I am 24 years old, and I grew up in Nishinomiya, Japan. Several years ago, I went to
Negros Island in the Philippines as a Habitat volunteer. This was the first of three trips I have
taken to the Philippines as a volunteer. For me, the idea of building somebody’s house abroad
was very exciting. The next year I returned to Negros Island as a Habitat volunteer. This time
I went as a student leader with 28 classmates from Kyoto University of Foreign Studies.

Both the staff and the families on Negros Island became dear friends of the work team
I led. Meeting these people was wonderful for each of us. Their lifestyle reminded us of the
meaning and value of life. The people also helped us to appreciate the more valuable things
in life, such as spending time with your family, friends and neighbours, developing close
relationships, helping each other, and appreciating what you have. These things are
sometimes forgotten in an affluent country like Japan.

We thought we came to the Philippines to help the Filipino people, but they helped us
to see something valuable. They generously offered their food, space and hearts in a way we
were unaccustomed to.

When I took my third trip to the Philippines as a Habitat volunteer, I was assigned to a
house with young people from around the world. In my group, there were Filipinos,
Americans, Indians, Koreans and Japanese. We worked together to complete a house of a
family we met on site. On the last day, all of us stood inside a room we had built in just a
week, feeling a sense of fulfilment. Even now we keep in touch across the world. Some of us
are actively involved in Habitat in different countries.

Read the text below and answer the questions that follow.

Whether you’re travelling to the islands or the mountains of Thailand, you’re likely to spend
at least one night in its capital city on the way. Bangkok might be noisy and polluted but it’s
also an exciting city with plenty of things to see and do. Why not make it a longer stay?

Where to stay
The Khao San Road was a famous traveller spot even before Leonardo di Caprio’s character
in the film The Beach stayed there. But it’s noisy, not very pretty and not very Thai. For
something more authentic, Phra Kanong offers an alternative place to stay, with its fantastic
street markets where everyday Bangkok people eat, work and live. It’s not as convenient for
the main tourist sites, but it has a Skytrain station so you can be at the Grand Palace in 20
minutes.

How to get around

Bangkok’s traffic can be a nightmare. Sure, you can easily take a taxi – if you want to spend
hours stuck in traffic jams – but there are two much better ways to get around the city. To
explore the temples and historical sites, catch an express boat river taxi or a longtail boat
along the Chao Phraya river and the canals. For the modern part of the city, the Skytrain is a
fast, cheap way to travel from the river to the shopping malls and nightlife of Sukhumvit, and
the famous Chatuchak street market.

Where to eat
The simple answer is: everywhere! Thai street food is among the best in the world, and for
around $5 you can eat a filling and delicious meal. Some food stands have little plastic seats
where you can sit and eat and they cook the same dish over and over, like fried chicken on
rice or Pad Thai noodles. Head for Chinatown – Yaowarat Street – and choose whatever
looks most interesting from the many excellent Chinese and Thai restaurants and food stands.

What to do
After you’ve seen the main sites like the Giant Buddha at the temple of Wat Pho and the
spectacular Grand Palace, and shopped at Chatuchak market, check out the snake farm and
watch the live snake show. You can even touch a snake yourself if you want to!
