Prost to the Great Memories!

Before heading off to Munich to begin what I would soon find to be one of the most amazing experiences of my life, I was often told: “since you’re going to Munich in the fall that means you will be there for Oktoberfest!”. It made me giggle at how the fact that I was going Read More

I’ve found my home

It’s difficult to find the right words to start this blogpost with. On the one hand I’ve had some great parties, met a bunch of nice people and did quite a lot of great and fun things to keep busy. On the other hand, some really frustrating situations have occurred (and are still going on Read More

An experience I will always remember

It feels weird writing my last blog post. To me, my last blogpost feels like the end of my semester abroad. The last few months felt like a rollercoaster. Here is what happened. When I first applied to do a minor abroad, I never thought it would actually happen. The idea to go abroad and Read More

The Art of the Dinner Party

I never expected to say this, but one of the main things I’ve taken away from my first semester in Munich is the art of the dinner party.

Routine: the reason of stress or the source of inspiration?

Routine is a generally accepted negative part of the reality. Pronounce it: r-o-u-t-i-n-e-e-e. Something mundane, something regular, something we got used to. On the other hand, having something regular help us to find a feeling of stability, which is necessary for the inner balance and for some sort of comfort. All my student experience is Read More
