The reception was an eye-opening experience for me! Hamburg is really open and tolerant, and talking to other international students I learned a lot aboutA lot of practical "dry stuff".For example, I learned how to use the library in Hamburg, how to participate in volunteer activities, and so on. These experiences made me feel much more comfortable, and I felt that I was no longer an "outsider", but rather an "outsider".It's really getting into the swing of things..
