By Maya Lach-Aidelbaum To be perfectly honest, studying abroad in Munich was not my first choice. Berlin was. I was enamored with the idea of inhabiting the capital of Germany -a chaotic metropole known for its alternative culture, turbulent history and radical politics. However, it turns out that fate (or rather, my university’s international office) Read More

Sandales, Chaussettes et Bières en cannettes ….

…. These prejudices  are in general the first ones we have in mind in France when we are talking about Germany and I have to admit that there are not totally wrong…. Especially after having taking part eight times to the Oktoberfest! A few words about me… I’m Mylaina, twenty years old, and I am Read More

name, surname. 20 y.o.

There is a fine line between bragging and boredom when 20-years-old tells about herself. I always fail introducing, being too concerned about staying on this line, where, as I believe, hides your real personality. When you are 20, you likely have already experienced a lot – tried numerous activities from alcohol to higher education. You Read More

What is in a name…

This time last year, I discovered that Munich had two names. I had just submitted my Erasmus paperwork, and was discussing the exciting feeling with an Erasmus student from Sweden.
