HELLOOOOOOOOO!

Hello!

Just a quick hello to summarise Patrik and Mette last week! Maybe I'll fulfil the definition of 'brief' this time? :-P
Patrik Nordell from Sweden came to talk to us about Philosphy and 'Deafism' and Mette Sommer from Denmark came to talk to us about Deaf Studies at Bristol University.

I honestly don't know what I can say about these two presenters.

Patrik was a little absent-minded but I guess that's part of his philosphy gig. He was obviously very intelligent but I felt that I didn't connect with his presentation.

Mette's presentation was about Sociology and about her studies in Bristol. Some interesting bits. She also showed us a really interesting video made 20 years ago about oralism... made us think about making something similar about a different issue...

Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday were spent in Berlin and Prague. I've emailed my family and friends the summary of the trip. It's far too long to post here, over 2000 words!!! If you want to see it, you can email me on katrina.pickup@gmail.com and I'll forward the email to you!!!
