Before I came here, to Lille, I didn't realize that I lived in North Sumatera, The north of my island. I love the region so much. Everybody was so different yet we are still living peacefully amongst the diversity.
Every Indonesians know how proud they are of being and Indonesian. Because we are different to each other, so we are used to live together in diversity. And yet in my region, the North. We really are proud of being the bataknese or the Orang Sumatera. That's what I found here in the north of France too. Maybe not actual French would do this, but us, the exchange students to the North are really proud of being the northerns people or Les Ch'Tis.
In Strasbourg, December 6th-7th, 2014. We met the people from the other districts. D1680. It was so fun yet amazing but they were kinda surprised how we actually speak French, we can talk in the actual French language or with the L'accent du Les Ch'Tis.

When that happened, it felt like home though. In my region, all the bataknese are so proud of being people from the north. Fun facts; we have weird accents, we speak loud, we laugh like there is no one looking at us, we sing 24/7, we are people from the north.
And when we were with D1680, we sang and we danced and we screamed and it was so damn awesome.
