Today the Oktoberfest in Munich has started. It’s the biggest festival worldwide with more than 6 million visitors and a perfect mix of entertainment, eating and drinking. During the traditional opening ceremony in the “Schottenhammel” tent the mayor of Munich had the honor of tapping the first keg of Oktoberfest beer.
The festival takes place at Theresienwiese in the center of Munich. And guess where I am living? Right... Munich :) This year the Oktoberfest celebrates its 200th birthday and the whole world is celebrating with it (at least I do). The festival will last until October 4th, so don’t expect many posts within the next two weeks ;)

Off topic: Germany vs. Argentina 4:0
My passion is cultural diversity, to establish relationships across cultures. However, during soccer World Cup my intercultural focus shifts from diversity to Germany only ;)
Yesterday Germany send the Argentina team back home with an outstanding 4:0, the week before England was gone with 4:1. (Including a somehow "delicate" goal disallowed by the referee. At least the German complaining about Wembley 1966 will stop now)
