Summary/Abstract: In our first session of the Writing Exercises Part 2 seminar, we learned about the Historical Images project in Bulgaria and Austria. When the lecturer told us what it was all about, we thought it was a good way to communicate with Austrians online. You always learn a foreign language better when you come into contact with native speakers. Some of us have already taken part in a student exchange and this has made a significant contribution to overcoming the language barrier. The regular exchange with native speakers helps above all, because it promotes our speaking skills, which are important for our studies and our professional prospects. Since we are studying German philology and not history, the topic sounded strange at first, but we wanted to know more about the culture and history of Austria, so we were willing to take part in this project.
