Writing about 09 July,
Today we took a trip to BASF, a predominant global chemical company.
Although we were only allowed to go into the visitors center, I was immediately impressed by the professionalism and the creativity.
Because the center was interactive, we all became kids and dug our hands into the science. We were surprised by the super-absorbent powder, used in baby diapers, and the diversity of products BASF brings to our everyday lives.
After a satisfying lunch, we headed back to school for a lesson in the history of Germany. Learning about the years of unification's trials and errors, and how that played into Germans lack of cultural identity was my favorite part of the lesson. During this lesson we were also happy to celebrate all of the summer school birthdays!
I can't believe that tomorrow we take our final and part ways. I will look back fondly on my time spent here, the many memories I will take with me, and the wonderful friends I hope to see again.
