Kalle - In His Own Words Hello everyone! I'm Kalle, 16-year-old and an exchange student from Essen, Germany. Football has always been a passion, not just as a player but also as a trainer. For the past year, I've been coaching football for a team of seven-year-olds in Germany, which has taught me a lot about teamwork, leadership, and the importance of hard work. Apart from football, I like playing chess because it challenges my mind and I just love the complexity of some moves and positions. Since my brother got me into the gym I go regularly to stay fit and healthy. Language is another area where I’ve put in some effort. I’m fluent in German and English, and I can speak a bit of Spanish and I have learned Latin as well. I have learned these languages because it's fun and useful, especially as an exchange student. Being an exchange student has been an exciting opportunity for me. I like exploring new cultures, learn new things, and grow both personally and academically. And from our roving reporter Today’s fantastic speaker’s presentation is given to us from Kalle Muscheid who we fortunate to have as our Rotary International Exchange Student.
