It´s my first time living and studying in Asia. And it is a whole different from Germany. I think the thing I like most is that I get to know so many people here.

Against all experiences from other students who were at UST I´m getting along with the local students really well — way better than with the exchange students. It might be the fact that I look like a Chinese, so everybody tries to speak Cantonese to me first and then realizing that I didn´t understand anything… (that so funny). Thanks to that and facebook I got to know so many nice girls and I hope that we can become really good friends.

But it seems to me that I´m the only one who has this experience. The other exchange-students stay in their group of foreigners — what a pity. But fortunately, it´s not my problem at all.

I´m looking forward to my appointment with Ebe (and maybe some other girls) next week. The buddy program is great! If you´re going to UST sometime you have to apply for it. Most buddies are so helpful and it´s the easiest way to get to know local students, so try. And if you´re lucky, you´ll get more than only one buddy.

See you next time.
