Willing is not enough, we must do..."

Goethe Institut was created post-WWII to create positive dialogue (NOT propaganda) and develop international friendships. The institute is funded by German tax dollars, houses offices in 128 countries on 5 continents (oddly, not Australia). Through a unique partnership between the Federal Foreign Office of Germany, the Goethe Institut, the Deutscha Bank, and Rober Bosch Stiftung, the Transatlantic Outreach Program (TOP) was created. TOP brings educators, from throughout the world, to Germany for a fully-funded 2 week study tour. The German people believe an investment in global educators is an investment in our students and the future.

I've always spoken the Korean Air gospel for Asia travel. This evening, Lufthansa Air kept me well liquidated, earning my European Air travel approval. In a smooth German accent, the captain oozed the announcement, "We now have the pleasure of being together for 6 hours and 55 minutes," upon lift-off.
