LOVELY USED GRUMPY COLDNESS_ book
Borderline experiences challenge us. They test our mental and physical limits, especially in
unfamiliar places.
Imagine this: You decide to leave your home country to study abroad. You will be confronted
with new people, a new culture and new places while experiencing a rollercoaster of emotions.
In my book 'LOVELY USED GRUMPY COLDNESS' 10 international students from 07 nations tell
stories about their daily life in Dessau and Germany.
