Prague: Czech Republic

My school is organizing a study trip to Prague, Czech Republic and i am dying to go for the study trip. Well, as usual, there are many worries especially financial since my family is not well-off. However, the good news is that the Khoo Teck Puat International Opportunity funds (KTPIOP) Funding supports for the needy students of up to $1200. This is open to students who have family income of less than $3000 and my family falls under this category.

And, I still have about $2300 in my PSEA account therefore i can use that sum of money to cover up for the airfare, accomodation, etc which accumulates up to $1895.

As for the daily expenses there, i've done my research. The living expenses there is quite affordable. I think it should be sufficient if i just convert $200.

I hope my parents allows me to go for this study trip. It's a once in a lifetime opportunity.

Just look at the place, it's so beautiful!
