Post München follow-up

We went to Neuschwanstein again, and climbed a snowy summer-trail and got some fantastic views. There were also some really neat shots within München itself that we stumbled upon. I seriously think that München is by far my favorite german city; but i have a couple more i need to visit first before making a declaration.

Interview:
The interview went well. The interviewers were absolutely awesome. The work described is very relevant to my interests and one of the interviewers even comes from a motorsports background. It was a pleasure talking to them both.

Dachau

It was such a beautiful day, but this didnt matter once you walked through the gas chambers; saw the crematorium; and stood at the wall where countless people were murdered. It is a very surreal experience. Only the trees standing bore witness to one of the darkest moments in German history. 

Konzentrationslager - Dachau 

(Gas chamber)

(imagine up to 10 people crammed in EACH bed)

Lions
Clay, more of it. Body filler imminent. Encountered a couple problems and need to do a slight redesign. Also picking through a checklist of rules and regulations for the Formula Student Tech inspection. 

Praktikum:
Train booked to München for monday, interview on tuesday 22.02.2011

will return 24.02.2011

Lions Racing - Clay

Trying to finish up the clay for the negative body mold. Next week will be using body filler and sanding, then working with carbon fiber

Bremen take 2

Some more pictures from Bremen (taken after the flight back from Stockholm)

Karting!

Lions Racing:
Just went karting today, it was a lot of fun...except i didnt know the blue flag meant the person behind should pass, i kept getting stuck behind someone and thought to back off as they were slowing in front of me constantly.

meh whatevs.


It was definitely fun and i hope to kart more often before i leave braunschweig.


Praktikum:
The position I applied for I did not get. Bummer, I have one more interview Feb 22 in Munich at BMW. I'm quite nervous but it would be an opportunity of a life time. I am preparing some other applications in case this falls through, maybe at Continental or VW. Kolbenschmidt Pierburg is also a very interesting company who deals with motor parts, pumps, and turbo manufacturing.
