My name is Saskia M. and I am 21 years old. From the time I had the course “English for children” in Kindergarden, I have shown enthusiasm for foreign languages. That is why I am studying for two years now “European Studies: Language, literature, culture” with the main languages Spanish and French and the subsidiary subject business studies at the Catholic University of Eichstätt-Ingolstadt. I took this course because the main focus is on the treatment of intercultural aspects and because I have the possibility to spend one semester abroad in France. Through one of my favourite books -“The Chinese” by Henning Mankell- I became interested in the Chinese culture and language and that is why I have already studied it for a year. As I started to organize the weekly group sessions with the younger servers of our parish at the age of 15, youth work plays an important role in my free time. Moreover, I am engaged in the organization of a yearly holiday camp and some other activities in the youth group. I am an adventurous and open-minded person and I like travelling and doing sports like inline-skating or swimming. Also, music is very important to me; I was playing the flute in an orchestra for many years and I am into going to festivals and concerts of all kinds. As I appreciate cultural exchange, I am looking forward to participating in the German-French-Chinese congress.
