Life and work in Vietnam
I was absent from blogging such a long time. I admit I was a little lazy, but there also wasn’t much to report about.
I started my internship in Vietnam the week before Chinese New Year and now I’ve been working for a month here. I got used to my work, which is a mix of translation work and works on current projects (meetings with public authorities and partners — after one meeting at the Ministry of Science and Technology I met my cousin at the entrance, until that day I didn’t know that he was working there ^^). There will be a trade fair in March and then we’ll be very busy here consulting and accompanying all the seven companies from Germany.
My colleagues are very nice and also my boss, but that’s no big deal, because we know each other for forever. There’re mostly girls here, so the topics we’re discussing are mostly love related ^^…that’s not really my favorite, but it’s definitely a nice change from the talks in TUM with all the guys around.

On Tuesdays and Thursdays I give extra lessons in German, also at the company, which also works as a medium for students who want to go to Germany for their studies.
So you can see that I don’t have much free time (working from 8 am to 5 pm everyday, classes are from 6 pm to 8.30 pm). That’s why I’m using my lunch break to write this entry. I’m absolutely not used to sleep during lunch break.
Moritz works in another company, which writes software for scanning systems which recognizes what is scanned and digitalizes the documents (I don’t know if you got what they’re doing, it also took me a while to understand, but explaining it to others is another thing.) After work he usually picks me up, it’s good that he’s so good with driving in Hanoi now. We want to go out more in the next days. Then maybe I have more to report to you. See ya.
