A BEAUTIFUL PLACE IN GERMANY
Twelve years ago I was
starting the design of a new program of studies related with the agriculture:
Agroecology. In that time UADY signed an agreement with University of Kassel,
in Germany; the professors of that University could help us to construct the
new courses. A first action was a meeting at Wittzenhaussen, at Germany, where the
Faculty of Agronomy of Kassel was established. I traveled with other teachers
of UADY in December of 2002.
When we were arriving to
Germany the first thing I felt was the cold weather: -12oC. But that was not problem for me, because I enjoyed it. I believe I am
a reincarnation of polar bear. The town of Wittzenhaussen, a beautiful site,
was covered by snow. It was an amazing landscape. When I was viewing the white scenario
I remembered the tales of Christmas that my mother told me when I was a child
in Mexico City. ¡That site was the same she described me.
In addition, the
people of Kassel University was very kindly. Several students learned Spanish in
different countries: Spain, Mexico, Argentina, and they had the accent of each
site. It was very funny.
¡Really, really was a
marvelous experience¡ I expect to return to Wittzenhausen as soon as possible.
