Our first full day in Germany, we started off
today with meeting our German group members and giving brief presentations on
the basics of our company (mine is Lear). It seemed to me that our German
counterparts are much more confident and comfortable when it comes to
presentations. Also, it does not seem like they procrastinate at all like we
do, they want to get it done with plenty of time to spare in order to make it
as good as possible. Next, we toured the University of Augsburg and ate in the
universities’ dining hall. Their University is much different than the
University of Pittsburgh in terms of the campus layout; with their university
being much more rural. Their dining hall is phenomenal compared to the one we
have at Pitt. The food was much better and it did not feel like we were eating
in the basement. Later in the afternoon we split into groups to do a scavenger
hunt around the city of Augsburg. It was actually a lot of fun, even though my
group was very bad at it. Our wonderful tour guide Jan managed to get us lost
on our way to dinner which resulted in us being disqualified from the scavenger
hunt. Oh well, we got to see more of the city. However, we will continue to
razz him for it for the remainder of our trip.
