With the new year well on its way, I thought it was finally time to do some catching-up here.
The KUNZ Podcast has been quite a success. Three local newspapers already sent out reporters to do interviews with students in charge of this monthly “internet radio show”. We were all so thrilled to find our pictures and flattering articles in Wolfsburg’s papers.
Apart from that I had a very nice experience today with a lady from Malaysia who does a lot for the preservation of certain species of turtles. You see, I am quite a “turtle kinda guy” myself.
So when I updated our Turtle web pages today I was in need of a photo of a Batagur turtle and I found the perfect one on flickr.com (by the way, this photo shows the Malayan Box Turtle at our school). This way I discovered that this lady, Pelf Nyok, is actually a blogger herself. That’s so cool!
She even posted an excerpt of our turtles pages only minutes after my comment on her blog. Pelf, if you read this, thank you soooo much!!!
About the turtles at our school, we are hoping to finally get our big tank fixed (it leaks
). So far all the shops we contacted declined to repair a fish tank of these dimensions. Let’s see how this will work out.
What else is going on around here… The students are busy producing their next podcast, for which they already recorded an interview with Braunschweig’s basketball team. Apart from that, I won’t be seeing much of them for most of the month of February, when they will explore the world of business in several companies first hand.

Yes, I read this, and please don’t say Thanks again
And please feel free to use any of my turtle pictures, and let me know if you need bigger resolutions
You’re doing a wonderful job creating awareness on the plight of the turtles too.. Cheers to you, Martin
