And so I am deeply thankful for having the possibility to study at a university. As I am studying something concerning intercultural communication I also have the possibility to go abroad for one… Read More One semester abroad
Bereits neulich wollte ich hier etwas zum Thema Sport schreiben. Nun bekommt man am Rande die Debatte in Social Media zum Thema “Völkerball” und der Empfehlung des Verbots dieses Spiels im Schulsport durch kanadische Forscher mit (zum Beispiel hier). Ein guter Punkt also, um anzusetzen. Ich gehöre zu den Menschen, die nie gut im Sportunterricht… Read More Sport
Ich habe diese Woche einen Artikel gelesen, in dem es darum ging, dass die britische Fluggesellschaft Virgin Atlantic die Make-Up Pflicht für ihre Stewardessen abschafft. Warum ist das so ein Ding?

We made another stop at a cooperative for organ oil and a woman explained how it is made. In Ouarzazate we… Read More Morocco II
Summer means time for traveling. In the last years I have worked for an association in german-french-moroccan holiday camps for teens. This year as well. But this year was special because it was the first time we went to Morocco. My travel began on a Sunday. Our voyage was supposed to start on Wednesday but… Read More Morocco I
