Guten Tag Everyone, Florida (state and university) are good places to live and study. I was never interested in much sports in Germany, a little bit of football of course- I was even at a world cup game- but living in Florida, I've become a fan of the other kind of American football as well. Tickets are quite expensive but reasonable if you are an international student- as I was. It is completely opposite from Antarctica main campus- weather of course, but also size: our UANT campus consists of a few buildings and labs, and a (very) small stadium and observatory, all that. This campus is huge, with orange and blue everywhere you look. The professors graded me fairly, the majority of people had respect for my opinons on political and social issues, which was also nice. There is so much fast foot available everywhere, one has to be careful not to put on a few pounds. My family who I stayed with here travelled to the seacoasts once a month. I was able to see many sights in Florida, including the Walt Disney World, St. Augustine, the oldest town in the Americas (that was not indigenious), Sea World, which is a zoo for exotic aquatic creatures, and others. I included a foto of a cat, most picky eather, which ate only hand-fed albacore tuna. I must warn UANT students who are heat-sensative: Florida did get quite hot, and humid in the summer. Be careful. A lot of things in FL are new. The state began in the business of tourism, which it is still in, but most people did not move to FL until - and I am not kidding now - air conditioning was invented and became widespread. The sky is almost never overcast (cloudy) and the Sun is so bright, it is very hard to see when driving sometimes. This is a cause of some accidents. In all, I recommend Florida. Thank you, good luck. -Stefan
