And finally, I'd just like to remind you of the upcoming international students' events this Friday and Saturday. As I'm sure you're aware, every semester, the university organisers two extremely useful introduction days for our international students. I'd encourage you to go along and take advantage of all the contacts, information, and tips about living in Berlin—we know you won't regret it! The events will help you find out about some of the best places in the city, as well as giving you the opportunities to meet up with students from some of the other international programmes.
