Visit to the nursing home
Bringing joy brings joy! A course group from our project InterSpace – Basisbildung für Jugendliche visited a nursing home last week, which opened up new perspectives for both participants and residents – and was clearly a source of joy! One participant wrote the following about the visit:
I would like to write about the nursing home.
I went to the nursing home with my class.
The nursing home was in the third district.
There we met the residents.
We talked to them, played together and drank coffee and it was very good. And I met a Kurdish woman; we spoke Kurdish and Turkish. Before she went into the room, she cried. I'm very sorry about that.
Best regards
Ahmet
