A little birdy (aka Instagram) told me that there is a new festival emerging in Saxony. There is not much I could find online about KONSUMGUT:OST, besides that it will be a pop culture festival for artists from Saxony and that it will take place in Dresden & Chemnitz on July 16, 2022. However, I am thrilled and think that is a great proof that Saxony has a lot to offer.

Since the semester break is coming to an end, I hope you had a good time writing papers or on vacation! Coming back to Leipzig and in-person teaching, some of you might think about how to go on with your studies, what internships to do, which career patch to choose or which masters to apply for. Of course those are questions only you can answer for yourself. However, I have a great internship possibility for you today!
