Since I am on Easter Break, I finally got around to writing about my field trip in Germany.
When I first heard about it, I decided not to go because I felt like I spent too much money the last couple of months. But when the trip was postponed, it was almost like I was given another chance and I did not let it slide again.
From 11th to 15th of February, I and some of my coursemates went to Berlin to visit two companies, AKQA and R/GA that would give us some insight on what our life as Graphic Designers could be like. (I will discuss this on the next post)
But our trip did not resume to just that. It was also a cultural experience and a great opportunity to get to know our peers better.
No matter if we were having a guided tour of Berlin with the most charismatic guide I have ever met, or we were exploring the city on our own, we were always looking for inspiration.
If the visits at the Jewish Museum and Holocaust Memorial had, as expected, an emotional impact on me, Reichstag offered us a stunning view of the city at night and I felt like I could have stayed there forever.
In the end, this field trip helped me expand my cultural horizons and had me open up more to my peers. I am defenetly glad I did not miss it.
It was like a breathe of fresh air.
