You may also know that many students are concerned about what they want to do after school. In Germany we have a lot of possibilities and many doors are open for us.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Many possibilities after school<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>For example, you can opt for a voluntary social year, a federal voluntary service or a voluntary ecological year in Germany. In addition, you can go abroad with various organizations with an international voluntary service, an au pair program or \u201cwork &amp; travel\u201d. Of course, there is also the possibility to start training or studying immediately after school. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-cgb-infobox infobox\"><h3>What\u2019s the right way for me?<\/h3><span><p><\/p><\/span>\n<p>Have you read Alma\u2019s article yet? Here you can also find some information about the different possibilities for a perspective after school. Alms looks back on her decision in the post\u2026<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>After school, we were both unsure which direction we would take. We were looking forward to new exciting experiences and therefore decided on an international volunteer service.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Lena\u2019s time in India:<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>I lived in India for a year after graduating from high school and worked there in a children\u2019s home for HIV-positives and from AIDS suffering children.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are 2.1 million people living in India who are infected with HIV. Girls are particularly hard hit worldwide. Here you can read more about this topic<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The children\u2019s home belongs to the missionary sisters of Hiltrup. There are also many other organizations that offer international volunteer service. For example, you can find many different providers though the international youth volunteer service.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-cgb-infobox infobox\"><h3>India \u2013 the land of the superlatives<\/h3><span><p><\/p><\/span>\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>More than 100 different languages spoken in India<\/li><li>India is the largest \u201cdemocracy\u201d in the world<\/li><li>It is the seventh largest country on earth with 3.3 million square kilometers<\/li><li>1.2 billion people live in India, making it the second most populated country in the world<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.planet-wissen.de\/kultur\/asien\/indien\/index.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"Hier (\u00f6ffnet in neuem Tab)\">Here&nbsp;<\/a>you can learn more about India<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">\n<strong>Nora\u2019s time in Namibia<\/strong>\n\n&nbsp;<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>I spent a year in Namibia after graduating from high school and taught in a boarding school for children and teenager between the ages of 6 and 17.

Eight nuns and 160 children from the boarding school greeted me there with great joy and curiosity. It was exciting and at the same time very interesting to get to know everything: my new room, the surroundings, the church services, the food and above all the new way of life. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Life in Namibia<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>My day started with a \u201cbucket shower\u201d because the shower didn\u2019t work. There was no washing machine, so I had to get used tor washing my clothes with my hands. Every now and then, the power went out for several hours. But this was usually not problem at all, because we had candles in case of need. I liked to have dinner with the children; mostly we had porridge made from the traditional grain \u201cMahangu\u201d. Cutlery was only for the elderly, so we used our hands to eat. I spent a lot of time outside with the kids during the day. We played with everything that was there: old car tires, sticks, ropes for jumping and we draw hopscotch boxes in the sand. There were hardly any real toys as we know them from Germany (especially no PlayStation or mobile phones!), so our creativity was in demand. I especially liked the church services. The children and sisters sang from the bottom of their hearts and danced to the music. It was so vivid.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"435\" height=\"413\" src=\"https:\/\/intombi.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/C0E2D92D-7E45-40FA-A8FA-939506EA55DD.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2978\" srcset=\"https:\/\/intombi.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/C0E2D92D-7E45-40FA-A8FA-939506EA55DD.jpeg 435w, https:\/\/intombi.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/C0E2D92D-7E45-40FA-A8FA-939506EA55DD-300x285.jpeg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 435px) 100vw, 435px\" \/><figcaption>Super much fun playing \u2013 we played with everything we could find.<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Many positive impressions, such as these, have accompanied me, not only in my early days, but throughout the whole year. Again and again there was something new! Of course, I also had negative experiences in the year. But it is precisely these ups and downs that have made the time so special. Overall, I spent an exciting, instructive and wonderful year in Namibia, which has shaped me positively to this day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-cgb-infobox infobox\"><h3><strong>Fun Facts Namibia<\/strong><\/h3>\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Namibia is named after the Namib Desert<\/li><li>In Namibia is the oldest desert in the world<\/li><li>Namibia has only 2.8 million inhabitants<\/li><li>Namibia is home to the largest number of cheetahs in the world<\/li><li>&#8211;\tIn Namibia you can even ski, down the dunes at +30\u00b0C<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Travel and security information about Namibia can be found at the Federal Foreign Office.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>One-year break \u2013 Was it the right decision?<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>In the year abroad we experienced a lot and learned a lot about ourselves.

Thus, we started to study social work at the Catholic University NRW in Cologne and graduated in 2018\/19.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For us the year break was the right decision to collect ideas for the future. What we want you to know:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s not bad if you don\u2019t directly know what you want to do after school. Don\u2019t stress yourselves and give yourselves the time to find what you enjoy!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>What can you imagine for your time after school?
