Today it’s all about a walk in the summer rain. We’re heading right to the end of August and it feels like a good time for this topic. So - grab your umbrella and let’s go…. :-) And, of course, it's much so more than just walking in the rain.

You know that I sing songs, I write the songs and I am writing books. And you know that I am teacher. This is what I do to earn a living. Education is a topic that takes a lot of space in m every day life and I’ve always felt very privileged that I have the opportunity to teach, to pass along knowledge to the young - which is quite wonderful, I think.
Ten years ago I started to write a novel which dealt with the matters of education in an old university town which is settled close beside a lovely river. That’s where the name »Lahnufer« came from and this is where the start today.

Welcome back to this episode which took a little longer to publish. That is because of a very busy time. Making a living sometimes needs all attention and does not leave any chance for the things you’d love to do instead.
But this is episode 54 and I hope it’ll be the one you’re about to like. So, let’s get right into it now.
