Thoughts about the seminar of Media Institutions in Munich: My experience

When I first signed up for this seminar course, I wasn’t really expecting much outside of the typical university class stuff: lectures, classes to attend, hanging out with fellow schoolmates and, depending on the quality and engagement of the lessons, something that I will remember very fondly or something that I will forget as time Read More

Hallo from Pao – A City Girl in Munich 🇹🇭➡️🇩🇪

Sawasdee everyone! My name is Nannaphat Phromsopha, but most people call me Mangpor – it means dragonfly in Thai. I love the symbolism behind it – always moving, light, and curious. Just like me, flying from place to place, collecting experiences and stories in every places that I go, or you can call me Pao, if that’s easier! Currently, I’m a third-year student in Philosophy, Politics, and Economics (PPE) international program at Thammasat University. I’ve always been curious about how societies work, how we make decisions, and how our values shape the world – that’s what drew me to PPE. I speak Thai, English, and a little bit of Chinese. So, I’m now picking up some German to challenge myself. I’m from Bangkok, Thailand, a city full of hope, life, colours, traffic, temples, street food, and beautiful chaos that I call it home. I grew up surrounded by people, stories, and energy – which is probably why I feel most alive in big cities. So, when I had the chance to study abroad, I looked for a place that had both city life and character – and Munich was the perfect choice. So….Why Munich? I’m a total city girl, and I need that buzz of movement around me. Munich has it all: elegant architecture, deep history, cozy cafés, cool art spaces, and green parks everywhere. Plus, it’s super close to the Alps, so you can go from city strolls to mountain hikes in no time. Honestly, I love how it makes myself feel grounded and free at the same time. Moreover, I chose Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität München (LMU) because of its strong academic reputation, diverse international student community, and the chance to experience life in one of Europe’s most dynamic cities. Munich has a unique character Read More
