Seeing how pristine the beach was at the Baltic Sea, with its iconic beach chairs (Strankörbe) providing protection against the wind, rain, and sun, was a great experience for me. It prompted me to reflect more deeply on the cleanliness of the beaches in my city.—Angelina Mkama, Mbweni Secondary School.

Participants spent the weekend immersed in German culture and family traditions. One group, led by Gabriele, a Hamburg-based participant, embarked on a journey to the Baltic Sea. Gabrielle was delighted to share her family home in the region with the group. They also had a wonderful time relaxing by the beach.
Other participants stayed at the Hostel, where Thomas and Katrin prepared a popular northern German dish called “Labskaus.”
