My German trip.

I went on a few days trip to Berlin as a participant to the SIFE world cup. The team from my university emerged the top in Kenya, and was representing the same at the global event.
I would start by saying that, this was my first trip to the developed world. Yes, there exist a wide gap between them and the third world where i come from. It was also my first time to board a train, and i loved it. Kenya has no train service in my home town of Eldoret. Having numerous trains running on time supplimented by buses makes Berlin’s public transport friendly.
My team was booked at the Estrel hotel & convention center for the whole duration of the trip. During our free times we toured the city beating the cold with hot serving when we got them.
The whole experience was eye opening. The opportunities of networking with over 800 students from 40 countries and their faculty persons, together with business personalities from the SIFE business council which includes: bayer, kpmg, T-mobile, etc.
Another opportunity was of seeing what SIFE teams from all over the world have done in their communities in terms of teaching about free enterprise. Teams had marvelous projects with great impact.
The event organizers deserve all the kudos, they made it fantastic. I feel so privileged to have attended the SIFE world cup 2009 as a winner from Maseno university, Kenya.
