Teuschnitz 2008

von Adda Bendia Abdelhak

from the first day we organized (me and my co-leader) a meeting our goal was to make the self-organization our aim. […] We discussed about every thing, kitchen service leisure and of course free time especially the weekend, the entire group was motivated, I think we were as a big family.

In the first weekend we decided to visit Bamberg and really it was a nice historical city all the group was satisfied and enjoyed it.

As we had three days free, the local authorities especially the mayor Gabriele Weber invited as for a party and a dinner including almost each weekend.

And we decided also to visit Nuremberg we spent all the day over there and I think it was also a nice city, we  decided to divided the group in many small one each one liked to take a look in special place he can do it him self and in the end we organized a meeting next to the big St Lawerence’s Church. […]

The accommodation was great and big enough for all the group, the kitchen was also well equipeted as well.

Just some times we and the kids of the schools need the kitchen it in the same time than we have to wait other wise we didn’t got any trouble about it.

It was so interesting to meet many people from different countries and cultures, for me it was a nice experience because almost all the group was interested about my culture especially the language one and the way to write the Arabic one.

We didn’t got any language problem even if some participants didn’t have a high level of english but as we were as a family no one can make jock about the other, we tried all the time to understand each other what ever the pronunciation can be wrong we didn’t care about it the most important was to understand it, […].
