Over 20 years ago … (it’s hard to believe). I still felt very young, very “under educational construction”. I was not ready for intellectual maturity. A lot of things were difficult, incomprehensible, I often felt like I was blindfolded. But also, on the other hand, I was electrified by learning. And the [ethnography] seminar seemed like it was from a slightly different world. The freedom prevailing during classes, the unusual reading list, the way of looking at science and also the different people attending this seminar – these were new things for me. […] First of all, I learned to look at science differently. I realized there were different paradigms – something completely new! As for the practical experience, it is hard to say whether what I gained was simply useful for me during work later on, but it certainly opened my mind, gave me a creative and curious approach. I learned to look for other, less standard paths, and to question things taken for granted. In those times, it was, for me, a small window opening towards something that I certainly could not name, but I am glad that I learned to see it, that it turned out this way, and that I could have had the freedom to see and describe reality. I included it in my master’s thesis – but it did not stop there, it stayed with me.
