One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
In February 2012 I travelled to Cape Town, South Africa to make my documentary film. Besides German Language Studies I also did a concentration in Media. That month in Cape Town was the best time in my life, I have never felt so free before. In this short period I had such great experiences with the lovely and positive attitude of African people and this broadened my horizons and opened my heart. I made a promise to myself and some lucky folks that one day I will be back there. Chilling.
Fundraising for an aid organization is a quite hard job but u can improve your soft skills enormously, for example how to talk with people in a good manner, how to motivate yourself, how to think positive, beeing ambitious and determined, how to communicate and argue and last but not least how to loose your shame before strangers.
