My Another University Life Story

One of my favourite things about studying abroad is the diversity and the various festival held by our University student union. So in this post, I’ll talk a bit about one of the recent festival I had in my University, held by some German students with the help of Chinese student union.

My flag (the right one) is accidentally looks like a halfcut flag tho, my friend was so nervous when she drew it on my hand >

This festival is called the 'German Week' (eventhough in reality it was only for a day).

But anyway, it was really fun.

Basically, the aim of this festival is to introduce the German's Culture to Chinese and International Friends. They set up some booths, decorated it with German's flag and some decorative lighting which attract a lot of students to come and visit. There's a booth where we can draw the German Flag, some booths for playing games like reading German’s sentences, playing tongue twister in German (which i kinda suck at, it's so difficult! :3), etc.

But the highlight, of course, is the foods and drinks they provided. They have already prepared some sausages, potato salads (which is taste super good), and pancakes for us to try. And they even prepared some small barrels of German beers that you definitely can’t miss.
