7 Continents

Report on the visit of a “globetrotter”

On Friday, November 18th, 2022, Class 8 was able to start a new life and discover work perspective with the visit of Mr. N. Bücher.
Mr. Bücher is running an exciting project (www.7-continents.com) which is about asking as many students as possible around the world about their wishes, fears and future views. He collects these in order to present them at the end of his trip at the UNO in New York and to draw attention to the real concerns of children and young people throughout the world.
The special thing about his trip is not just the fact that he is well known for his surveys, (he has traveled across 7 continents), but also covered his route by running all the way. His route through Europe alone covered 7,000 kilometers, which he covered on foot.
It was great to hear about his experiences and that Mr. Bücher also answered the students’ questions very honestly in a special Q&A session.
We would like to take this opportunity to thank Mr. Bücher for his visit and all the organizers for their efforts!
