Does China really deserve the Olympic Games?



Let me share my concerns about the situation in Tibet ...

Recent events showed once more how tough the Chinese leadership reacts when it comes to the Tibetan issue...

Today I attended (once again) an peaceful gathering in the centre of Strasbourg... This time, we were about 500 people.
It was quiet but impressive and the speeches held were interesting.

German Spring


After coming back from Sweden, I enjoyed a few days with my relatives in Waldenbuch,
southern Germany.

The weather was awesome, incredibly sunny and warm. Many people - including me of course - started sunbathing...


Waldenbuch is a lovely town and very typical for its region...
