It’s all a question of wanting I guess. No no not of wanting, of waiting. Like of wanting or waiting to leave and come back and remembering who you were while remaining who you are. Your self will never leave you, so why should you worry? Well you do worry. You worry because you always [...]

Maybe, you know, maybe I do believe in destiny. In destiny as in something huge and great and powerful and non-existant that merely exists because it gives me hope. It was all a question of waiting you know? Time’s over, space does not exist any more. Maybe I was actually supposed to care about it, [...]

Snow season in cologne

Rather cold than nothing. One can always stay cold if one wants to. A violent impulse. I want to taste the [...]

Die Vandalen-Ausstellung in Karlsruhe
Sehr verehrte Leserinnen und Leser, Liebe Constipendiaten, Am vergangenem Sonntag, bin ich eben in der Vandalen-Ausstellung im Badischen Landesmuseum zu Karlsruhe, quondam Residenz der Großherzöge des Landes, gewesen.

Bilder von Marburg
Hallo, heute werde ich ein paar Fotos von Marburg, meiner deutschen Heimatstadt , kommentieren. Bild 1 zeigt den Eingang zur Oberstadt: die Gutenbergstraße. Sie ist vermutlich eine der Orte in Marburg, die am meisten befahren werden. Ganz normal. Drum herum stehen viel Geschäften und Supermärkte. Ab von diesem Ort kann man auch leicht Kirchen, Sporthallen, [...]

Was ist bloß mit dem Wetter los?
Es muss erstmal gesagt werden, dass ich mich in diesem Blogeintrag auf jeden Fall nicht beschweren möchte! (mich stört das komische “nicht-winterliche” Wetter nicht so sehr Anders aber einige andere in Freiburg. Die warmen Temperaturen, die es dem Regen nicht erlauben, endlich zu Schnee zu werden und die heißbegehrten Pisten mit ihrem weißen Teppich zu [...]

The christmas markets in Germany are a great sight to see and a major attraction. They start off well 1 month before Christmas and hence they make a wonderful option to go out on a weekend to relax and have fun in an otherwise cold and dull winter.. The market in Erlangen has been put [...]

Enough food and drink sampling at Anuga? How about some German technology? Just outside Hall 8 of the fair, a mini Zeppelin was spotted hovering above our heads. This fascinating craft is operated by Friedrich, a 20-year-old electrical engineering undergraduate. He flies this Zepplin nine hours a day and walks about at the north entrance [...]
When we leave home and head to a foreign country to study, one of the things we miss the most is FOOD. All those delicious things that reminds us our home country!! At the Anuga, we found people from every part of the world offering their typical food so we can have them at the [...]
