#KarlsAmbassadorsBrazil 🇧🇷 Winter in German #KarlsAmbassadorsBrazil 🇧🇷 Winter in Germany. Even though I already experienced the European winter before, I must say that winter is never easy for a Brazilian. I come from one of the hottest cities in Brazil, but weirdly enough the cold weather isn’t the hardest thing that we have to deal with it, the lack of sunlight is. At the end of October the temperature and the leaves from the trees start to fall and the days become shorter and shorter, in the peak of the winter the sunrise starts at 8/9am and the sunset at 4pm, so it’s rather common to feel a little bit down during this time. One thing pretty cool about the winter is that at least we can go to the Black Forest to ski 🏂 By Celinne de Paula *CdP @d.celinne (Karls Ambassador for Brazil) 👉 Find out more about her experiences about living and studying in Germany on the ambassadors’ blog!

#KarlsDiscourse 🌏 As part of the community pro #KarlsDiscourse 🌏 As part of the community project 'Klimaschutz gemeinsam wagen", a group of Karls students undertook several self-experiments to reduce their CO2 emissions. They also spread sustainable behavior by writing blog articles, taking campaign pictures or recording a podcast for their client "Quartier Zukunft". Community Projects were initiated by the SENSE project with the goal of enabling students to have a real impact on a community. Hopefully, more people will start these self-experiments and participate in saving the planet. ✊ Please find more information about how to be one of them and the SENSE project in my blog article “Working with the community: 5 steps to a successful community project at Karls" - blog link in bio ⬆️ By Lisa Hervieux @lisa.hervieux *LH #karlsstorytellers #karlshochschule #internationaluniversity #letsmakeadifference #changemakers #sustainable #behaviour #healthylifestyle #savetheenvironment #cpro #servicelearning #selfexperiment #vegan #vegetarian #bio #noplastic #greenenergy #nocar #bachelorstudies #masterstudies #karlsruhe #studyabroad #studyingermany #studyineurope #universityblog #klimaschutz #quartierzukunft
#KarlsAbroad 🦋 “In many American colleges, y #KarlsAbroad 🦋 “In many American colleges, you are required to stay on campus during your freshman year. At Chestnut Hill College, we share a room with another person and eat all meals on campus. This is a very different experience for me as Karlshochschule students only go to University to attend class and study. Coming to the US as an international student, it was very easy to make friends and integrate quickly into student life while living on campus, which is why I cherish making this experience at Chestnut Hill College. The negative side is that you cannot cook your on food and that you have to adjust to being around people all the time, but it is definitely worth the experience as you make unforgettable memories with your peers.” By Chiara Pfisterer *CPf @chiarafabienneee #semesterabroad #karlshochschule #letsmakeadifference #internationaluniversity #studyingermany #studyabroad #studyineurope #studiereninbawü #bachelorstudies #changemakers #abroadinusa #liveabroad #experiencesabroad #studymanagement #studyinternationalbusiness #studysociety

#KarlsBlog ✍ “Big family gatherings, beautifu #KarlsBlog ✍ “Big family gatherings, beautiful fireworks, amazing food… this is how people usually picture the Chinese New Year celebrations. And, to be honest, they usually are! People travel from all around the globe back to China to spend time with their families. This is also what I did. For the first time since more than 15 years I travelled home and was excited to celebrate Chinese New Year with my family. Well, it was a bit different than I expected. I have to say, being “locked” in the house can make people very creative. The video shows one example what bored Chinese people do...” Read the whole blog article from Yibei Geng *YG @yibeiandthegeng on the Karls Blog!

#KarlsAmbassadorsBrazil 🇧🇷 “The difference #KarlsAmbassadorsBrazil 🇧🇷 “The differences between Brazil and Germany? How everyone respects traffic lights and signs is something that I noticed right away in my first time in Germany. The pedestrians here wait for the green light even if no car is coming. Another thing is the high quality of the public transport, here you really don´t need to have a car to move around, because you have a high quality and secure public transport and you can easily move by bike since the cyclists are respected here. I also have observed that Germany is a pet-friendly country, it is very normal to see dogs in restaurants, public transport, etc. For me, it is fascinating that most of the dogs here don't use dog collars and are well trained. I couldn’t write this text without talking about the German punctuality, and yes, I can confirm it, they are always on time, the opposite happens just if something terrible happens. Finally, German food: it is very different from Brazilian cuisine, be prepared to eat a lot of carbs, since bread is one of the main foods here. There're still many differences between the two countries, but speaking from my personal experience, you will be able to learn very fast these differences and in a short time some of these differences will be part of your own culture.” By João Beber *JB @joao_beber (Karls Ambassador for Brazil) 👉 Find out more about his experiences about living and studying in Germany on the brand-new ambassadors’ blog from him and his fellow student Celinne – link in bio! ⬆️ #letsmakeadifference #karlshochschule #internationaluniversity #karlsambassadors #karlsruhe #studyabroad #studyingermany #studyineurope #studiereninbawü #centerofeurope #studymanagement #studyinternationalbusiness #studysociety #bachelorstudies #studentlife #lifeabroad

#KarlsAmbassadorUK 🇬🇧 “Karlshochschule Bri #KarlsAmbassadorUK 🇬🇧 “Karlshochschule Bridge Week 2020: Every year in the last week of January, the "Bridge Week" takes place at Karlshochschule. This is the time where all our 5th Semester IB, Management, IR and PPE students come back from their respective exchange destinations and back to Karls, just before they embark again on their next journey, the intergrated internship semester. I am a massive advocate of educational mobility and the semester abroad (not just because of my job in the IO), I strongly believe the semester abroad is a fantastic opportunity that changes lives and genuinely changes perspectives. The great thing about this aspect within the sphere of academia is that it's becoming ever-more accessible. The next ERASMUS+ project announced by the European Commission from next year, 2021 to 2027 will be doubling it's overall budget, from around €15 Billion euros to a whopping €30 Billion euros.

#KarlsAmbassadorsBrazil 🇧🇷 „The atmosphere #KarlsAmbassadorsBrazil 🇧🇷 „The atmosphere of Karlshochschule: The Karls is different in many aspects, and because it's a small university, it provides us an intimate and cozy environment. All the classrooms have glass walls, and the departments’ doors are always open. Because of that, you can get really close to the staff and professors here, and conversations with the director of the university are not uncommon at all. One of my favorite things here are the #KarlsEvents: karaoke nights, Halloween parties and events for special dates are wonderful opportunities to talk to people in other majors or that’re in other semesters. At the beginning of the semester we have the “Orientation week”, which was one of my coolest weeks ever.“ Read the whole article from Celinne de Paula on her ambassadors’ page!

While I had visited quite a few of the western European countries, I had my curiosities about the lifestyle and values in some of the northern and eastern countries, perhaps since I come from the northeast of my country!?” Read the whole article from Derek Twiss *DT @twisst.99 on his ambassadors’ blog.

#KarlsAmbassadorsBrazil 🇧🇷 “Why study in G #KarlsAmbassadorsBrazil 🇧🇷 “Why study in Germany? I always had the dream to study abroad, and I chose Germany because of the opportunities that I can find here, and also because of the quality of higher education. And why Karl's? First, because they offer studies in English, and that's the main language in the International Business context. Also, here I have the chance to build a strong international network since 40% of Karl's students are from abroad. Another reason was all the opportunities that this university has to offer, for example, be an ambassador, the scholarship that I got, etc. I confess that I tried to come here without any expectations, but after being here for one month already I can say that I’m very happy about my decision.” By João Beber *JB @joao_beber Find out more about his experiences about living and studying in Germany on the brand-new ambassadors’ blog from him and his fellow student Celinne! Link in bio ⬆️ @afsdeutschland @afsprograms @afsbra #karlsambassadors #karlshochschule #internationaluniversity #letsmakeadifference #karlsambassadorbrasil #karlsruhe #studyabroad #studyingermany #studyineurope #exploretheworld #changemakers #studentlife #studentblog #afsscholarship #afsdeutschland #afseffect
#KarlsAbroad 🇺🇸 "At Chestnut Hill College, w #KarlsAbroad 🇺🇸 "At Chestnut Hill College, we celebrated the Chinese New Year with a traditional dragon dance in the breathtaking foyer and delicious food made by a famous Chinese cook. We learned that not only the Chinese celebrate the new Luna calendar but also many other Asian countries such as Korea and Vietnam. It was interesting to see this celebration being a big part of society here, as I have never experienced it in my home country before!"

#KarlsAmbassadorsBrazil 🇧🇷 "My first impress #KarlsAmbassadorsBrazil 🇧🇷 "My first impressions from Germany? This country surprised me in different ways, I must say that even though I didn’t create many expectations before coming, this country isn’t what I’ve imagined. I don’t know exactly if it’s because we’re in a student city, or if I’m just lucky, or if it’s because I spend most of my time at Karls (which is the friendliest place possible), but everyone here is extremely friendly and open. There’re obviously some differences, people here wouldn’t be as “passionate” as we are in Brazil, but they are still incredibly nice. Another thing that I realized right away is that everyone speaks English here, in supermarkets, bars, restaurants, you’ll always be able to communicate. Germans also are really concerned with the environment, after just a short time here you’ll have 4 bins in your room to recycle everything accordingly. In Karlsruhe, everyone uses bikes to move around the city, and when it’s a sunny day, people go to the castle to drink beers, by the way, the beer will probably be fabricated in the city! I’m constantly noticing these cultural differences. I’m excited to see more of this and to share my new discoveries here!"
