Tübingen South Africa Program 2011

 

Meet the Mayor of Tübingen, Mr. Boris Palmer

Reception at the City Hall

This was one of the greatest moments I ever had in Tübingen "Meeting the Mayor of Tubingen". The day most of the ladies were looking forward to it as Barbra would say "Ladies, the mayor is good looking and young …who knows…maybe one of you might be staying behind lol ". I learned a lot from him, he is young for his age to be a mayor that clearly showed me that no matter what age you are you can be a leader and we shouldn't limit ourselves because of our age. He is a very friendly guy, while I was chatting to him, I even forget that I am talking to the mayor the way he's so free and accommodating. Another thing which I turned to notice from him was the care he has for the people of Tübingen and the internationals. Standing on the city hall balcony with our national flag overlooking the market square was also one of the experiences that one never forgets. I would like to extend my gratitude towards the sponsors of the programme thank you so much for making our dreams become a reality.
