Our student of German Molly Blight recently completed an internship in the town hall of Graben-Neudorf in Germany. Molly had a great time experiencing German life and culture, and was asked to write a report of her stay which has been published on the town hall's website below. Hut ab, Molly!

Insgesamt kann ich sagen, dass mein Praktikum wirklich sehr gut verlaufen ist. Ich habe viel über die deutsche Kultur, verschiedene Redewendungen und das Arbeitsleben hier gelernt...
