I'm Canadian

Me at the Tacheles Gallery in Berlin

A professor of mine once mentioned in lecture that if you cannot summarize a topic within a single paragraph, you do not truly understand it. I’m not sure if this statement is true, heck I am not even completely sure which one of my professors told me this. All I know is that I have been staring vacantly at my wall for the last 10 minutes trying to figure out how summarize, condense, or even where to begin describing my experience working in Kaiserslautern, Germany doing a Geotechnical and Soil Mechanical Engineering position I had found through a student run program called IAESTE/AIESEC. All I have established is that I have a really boring looking wall and that pounding my head against my desk does not make ideas flow any better.

Cultural Envoy for Exchange Development

Cata...

My name is Catalina Serban (a.k.a. Cata) from Pitesti, Romania and I came to Kaiserslautern, Germany to meet new people and to work. 
My journey started last year in spring when I decided to come to the grand opening of an organization that I did not know, AIESEC. I joined as a member right after because the presentation fascinated me and my expectations. I found out that AIESEC is an international organization for young people who want to develop personally and professionally.

IASHINGTON International Conference

Everyday on our campus, I see ambling students with half closed eyes, yearning for excitement. This ambiance always makes me depressed and I really needed some change! Change happened: last week, I attended the most exciting conference in my life!

Iaşi - "The city of great loves"

Having never attended an international conference before, I seized this opportunity to challenge myself, to increase my flexibility, to go beyond my comfort zone, to meet interesting people, to improve my English skills, to attend the communication workshop (some content see below) ... and of course to have a lot of fun!!
