We learn German on the fly. I like the expression as it is linked with one of Churchill’s sentences: “We are making our own Universe on the fly”. And that is true. We are masters of our own lives as our universe!
So, on the fly, on Saturday evening I ended up in the Badehaus Szimpla club with live music . Two bands performed some mixture of music and they advertised it as the Balkan music mixed with some other styles.
Although the music was totally different from what I’ve expected (as I come from the Balkans), it was actually great! Quality performance and positive people around me made an excellent Saturday/Sunday night. We’ve been even dancing and singing some German words in the refrains of – to us unknown – songs. I am truly thankful to my colleagues from the university who invited me to “break the daily agenda full of work
”.
