Walk
To relax after Europe Week, I took a walk through the Tree nature trail in Friedrichsau granted. The signage and labeling is also worth imitating in other cities, because then you can see what treasures your own city has to offer.

Recently, quite a few politicians have been quite astonished that they are no longer being elected, or even that not even their own party believes they are capable of a new mandate. There are probably reasons for that too.
association work
Association work can also be really annoying, especially when the usual “mail collectors” wake up and add their own two cents - interestingly enough, this always happens especially before elections. It's amazing what earth-shattering ideas they then bring into play, such as: "let's write EUROPE-UNION completely differently" or "let's find a different name for Europe Day" or even "we already have all our resolutions, Cover letters and other works correctly gendered?”
And if that's not enough, then the self-appointed consultants come into play, who, without ever having led a local or district association, want to turn the entire association's work inside out and keep the members on their toes with workshops, sit-ins and other well-intentioned actions ; This activism could, if channeled into simple district association work, actually benefit the association - unfortunately, work at the local level is very frowned upon, especially for these comrades-in-arms, it absolutely has to be at least at the federal level.
A federal association lives and dies at the local level, and if you're not careful, there will soon only be representatives of zombie associations in Berlin and Brussels.
