I attended the meeting as the german TEN SING representative We were accommodated in the lovely Missio-Center YMCA Sophienhof in Berlin Mitte. It was a great meeting and I got to know some very intelligent and kind people from all over Europe.
The Blog is in german. I will add some eyecandy for those, who don’t understand german so well as soon as I come home.

Review: My Climbing equipment
Some months ago started climbing. Once or twice a week I’m practicing in the indoor-climbing-center “Kletterzentrum-Nordhessen“. The center is also headquater of DAV (Deutscher Alpenverein [german alps society]), section Kassel, where I am member since January.
Piece by piece I bought equipment for my needs. As a beginner I didn’t really know what my needs were. I didn’t have any references what climbing gear would be worth buying. So I want to give you some guidance with the test results from my personal equipment after using it for some time. I mainly have beginner’s gear, so if you’re a Pro, this won’t interest you much. If you’re a beginner, read on! Continue reading

Geneva, Flensburg, Brussels, Prague, Wildpark Knüll, Berlin
5400… I’ve been travelling 5400 kilometers in the last 1 1/2 months. I want to share some small pieces of the great experiences at the places I’ve been and the the people I cherish.
In the middle of August –> Geneva
At ETS-Festival I found many new friends. One of them is Romulo (You can read his Blog “The life report”, link in the sidebar
) He is YMCA worldalliance Secretary General for youth empowerment.
He invited me over at the end of the festival and two weeks later, I started off with Vladi in my old VW Golf 3 to Geneva in Switzerland. Great road trip, but very warm indeed. The weather was great the whole
weekend and we had a great time at lake Geneva, got
involved in United Nations work, explored the city of Geneva and we enjoyed being at Romulo’s place with the great view.
End of August –> Flensburg
Spontaneously Felix, Daniel and I decided to visit Kevin, who moved to Flensburg in August. It was a great weekend full of “men-time”, “men-talk” manly Flensburger Pilsener. The weather was
BAD, but we were swimming in the Ostsee, explored the city and made some manly fotos
Middle of September –> Brussels
European parliament member Udo Bullmann invited 26 young socialists from Jusos Hessen to Brussels. We were visiting the European Parliament and had time to explore Brussels.
Tuesday was very long with a lot of meetings with the DGB (Deutsche Gewerkschaftsbund)
, Barbara Weiler MdEP, Udo Bullman MdEP, PES (Party of European Socailists). In the evening we went to Hessenfest. How funny: Left Hessen behind to go to a hessish banquet.
My red VW Golf 3 drove me and some people from www.mitfahr gelegenheit.de to Prague. It was great weather: babí léto (indian summer/Altweibersommer) and
I enjoyed spending time with Vladi. I was on a youth conference there and on sunday we made the touristic stuff: Castle Prague, Carlsbrige, old city and in a green parc.
After Prague –> Wildpark Knüll
I stole Vladi and brought her back to Germany after my trip to Prague. Czech police stopped me and I had to pay a fee.
Back home we went to Wildpark Knüll and had a lot of fun. We saw bears (Vladi was very scared at first). We a lot of deer, and other funny animals. Let’s see if I can give you an impression on video Angry bird.
September/October –> Berlin
Berlin political – 24 hours! 12 young socialists from JuSos Germany met to discusspolitics can change about the web. A great meeting with lots of great ideas.
That was what happened in a galaxy, 5400 kilometers away.
