The importance of being an international student

After two days I realized, that being an international student is a really hard job in Wismar. We had to do so many things, we even had to meet a mayor of the city in the townhall. He was really nice, telling us about the history of the town - I started to call Wismar its right name - Town, not a city:) - and some other information, which I didn't exactly listened to.

We could and of course did visit many sports and cultural facilities, we had a city tour, which was supposed to be interactive in way, but in the end resulted in copying the answers of the tests from some more hard-working students, which were actually in the minority(understand only two).

The Stadtfuhrung:) was actually pretty fun, with all the english speaking people trying to read german text, and on the other hand I pretty enjoy old citycenters. Sorry towncenters:). And churches, and townhalls and monasteries and parks and fountains and all other old things:)In the end of the tour we visited St.-Nikolai-Kirche and climbed 93 steps of a spiral-staircase, which was pretty challenging for us, but the view of the city was well worth it.


Although a friend of mine said:"I am never going to enter a single church again." Like I said before, being an international student in Wismar is a pretty hard job:).
