Hey! It´s so nice that so many pf you speak German! I´m very surprised! And don´t bother, your German isn´t bad! I know how easy it is to forget lenguages.. I once learned Spanish and I can still understand a bit but never ask me to speak it myself And it´s always very hard for me to get back into my English and French classes after 6 weeks of summer break.
how i came to simple living.. I think I don´t really have an explanation. On one hand I´m a person with big aims, i want to launch a career, earn money and BE ABLE to live a decent live. But it´s just about the opportunity, not about really doing it. But on the other hand i can go shopping a whole day without buying anything, even thoug i have enough money with me to but about every creepy stuff I see (i tried it once..it was easier than you think)
I´m someone who is concerned about what´s going on in this world. some years ago i was just consuming a lot as every other teenage girl my age. but when i got problems with my skin because of too many chemicals and i got into that whole thing i started to change my atitude towards most of the conventional products and i changed to more sustainable products like organic food and cosmetics, but within the time i started to reduce everything and think about what i really do need and what I don´t need. Sometimes I think I still live too boastful, but i try to work on it.I always think that some years ago, people were living without XXX, so why schouldn´t i be able to quit as well?
I´m trying to see oursociety more critical, i want to get to know what´s behind our behavior, i want to know the variety of aspects like how economy works and how it infulences our buying behavior and things like that, so that i can react to it and build my own opinion. But believe me, I´m still far from knowing everything I want to know as I´m not even having my A-Levels yet.
I hope you understand everything I wrote because my English is not that good, so if there are any serious mistakes please tell me so I can improve my English and I´ll get prepared for my final exams and my term papers (Would be embarassing if I´m the one to make the worst mistakes as I´m one of the only persons who are really interested in English in my course)
Greetings
