Humboldt Journey

After some quiet weeks, we are back on track! Just had a wonderful group Skype to brainstorm on the time between the Container's arrival in Germany and the handover to the next Humboldt crew.

To all interested ZU students: Please approach us, if you are thinking about taking the Humboldt Container on its next exciting journey. We are happy to share our experiences and help you on the way. :)

We are looking forward to read, watch and hear your complete article on the 10th of June.

Thank you Standpunkt for accompanying us on our Humboldt Journey for one day.
