SNAPS: Thomasian Global Village

I kind of assumed the role of an unofficial photographer during AIESEC-UST's very first mini Global Village (GV) held last Wednesday. I knew the other AIESECers would be super busy, so I figured, perhaps, I could help them at the moment by documenting the event. After all, I like staying behind the lens and taking photos. Haha! And, since I'm not a fan of Facebook's crappy photo album feature, I'm including in this post some of the "best" shots from the GV. 

How was the event, you ask? Well, it exceeded my expectations. In fact, think it exceeded everyone's expectations.

Sure, it wasn't set in a glamorous venue, nor did we have state-of-the-art props and shizz, but everybody seemed to be having fun, while learning about different cultures at the same time, and that's all that mattered. So, kudos to AIESEC-UST, especially to the Organising Committee (We love you, OC! We do! ♥) and to the EPs, as well as some UST international students, who put up really interesting booths (with the least resources available and in the shortest time possible) and warmly interacted with the students who dropped by.

What's an AIESEC event without AIESEC dances?

I helped Peppi put up her booth, since she didn't have much items with her -
I loved the Salmiakki, though! :D

The participants also paraded their national costumes :)
