_In your city

In many cities, there are local groups and activities for international students and graduates. Germans and Internationals meet at the University, in their dorms, or at home. Every week or once a month, on a weeknight or during the weekend. To learn German or to cook, to sing and read the Bible, or just to play games. There are many opportunities – just look if there is anything in your city. You’re more than welcome to get in touch or just stop by.

In case there is no link to activies where you live, you are kindly invited to visit the SMD students group there, see here.
