While drinking a Bavarian beer, we did a cultural quiz. With this quiz we wanted to relax the atmosphere and wanted to inform the international students about German traditions such as the Maibaum, Oktoberfest, Reinheitsgebot and other stories around the culture and tradition in Bavaria. With a short brekaout session we wanted the people to get to know each other better. With the bingo we wanted to create an open exchange about intercultural experiences and exchange about stories we lived through.
On Wednesday ESN hosts a beer tasting evening filled with stories about Bavaria, beer culture and little drinking games :) Join us for a trip into the World of Bavarian Beer Culture !
Firstly, we did the cultural quiz with a first round of beer. Afterwards, we did a short breakout session to strengthen the communication. Then we did an intercultural bingo with three different lists with "I have done in Germany/I still don't understand/weird and cool things". With a random number generator, we had different numbers appearing. When someone had the number s/he could tell the story behind it and then we continued. In the end, we just chatted in breakout sessions.
