At the Leipzig Book Fair Oksana and Marcus "travelled" together to Serbia and had many interesting talks with authors, who chose to write in German although they have a foreign background.

Mairi from Estland and Ida from Mainz had four pretty colourful days in Leipzig, because they dove right into the world of mangas and cosplay at the Book Fair. While Ida is already an expert on that topic, it was a completely new experience for Mairi.

For Caitlyn and Claudia it was not easy to find a connection between their topics. While Caitlyn was mostly interested in radio plays and audio books, Claudias main concern were eBooks. The results are two articles - one in German about eBooks and one in English about radio plays and audio books.
Claudia Scheel: Auf den Spuren des eBooks
Caitlyn Westbrooke: When books start talking

Jana und Olivia

Jana und Olivia were the only team, that worked exactly on the same topic. The girl from the Netherlands and the student from Düsseldorf cared more about the book covers than the actual story and wrote two seperate articles - one in English and one in German.
