I worked at "Cumberland News" in Carlisle for five days. It was really interesting to see how a newspaper agency is working. I was allowed to write own articles and take photos with the photographer. If you are interested in writing The Cumberland News is a great working place. I talked a lot with the journalists and learned many new things. But I also had some times where...
When I first entered the lot of the "small" company Linton Tweeds, I was even a little bit more fascinated of Carlisle. Our B&B was just a 15-minutes walk away, but the environment was completly different.Instead of apartment buildings lots of factories identify this part as the industrial area of Carlisle.But because everybody is able to talk about the normal everyday life...
"Hello everybody how are you, how are you today?" - This is, what every morning at my workplace -the James Rennie School- started with. The James Rennie School is a School for disabled children from age 3 to 19.

Even though we came too late the first morning because we didn't get the right bus stop we really enjoyed our week! We both were in two different classes in year 2, which was really great because we did not speak a lot of German and we knew the children very good at the end of the...

With us travelled...
On Saturday, the day we were in Edinburgh, we had 6 hours free time. At first, Tina, Karen, Levke and I (Michaela) went to buy some food but soon Tina and I decided to part from Karen and Levke who were not motivated at all to do anything ;-) So Tina and I went off to find the little mountain ´Arthur´s Seat´ on which we then climbed. And here are some impressions from the top. Yes,...
To everyone who thinks about spending one week in Great Britain I totally recommend eating fish'n'chips in a typical pub. Although I felt like the only one who really liked the meal (and I am NOT uncomplicated when it comes to food ;-)!) the evening was really beautiful and we enjoyed it a lot ☆ Nevertheless I can also recommend the frozen and/or finished products. Overthere...
