<b><font face="CG Times"><font color="#990000">Dear friends all around
the world,</font></font></b><b><font face="CG Times"><font color="#990000"></font></font></b>
<p><b><font face="CG Times"><font color="#990000">I am very new to the
list, so I will introduce myself a bit.</font></font></b>
<br><b><font face="CG Times"><font color="#990000">My name is Nuran Yigit.
I am studying Pedagogy in Bielefeld, Germany, in my last year.</font></font></b>
<br><b><font face="CG Times"><font color="#990000">I got in touch with
Open Space Technology last summer in Brussels, where I met John Engle (living
in Haiiti)... he told me a lot about OST and his experiences with this
methodology... he made me very curious to know more about OST. Beside this
I was very surprised about a very interesting methodology I haven't learnt
at University... this made me even more curious.</font></font></b>
<br><b><font face="CG Times"><font color="#990000">Unfortunately OST is
in Germany not very known. For this reason I decided to write my thesis
in pedagogy about OST, to spread out this idea in Germany and to practise
it after my studies. I will start in Oktober this year.</font></font></b>
<br><b><font face="CG Times"><font color="#990000">Before starting to write
my thesis I would like to go to USA to do an internship during July, August
nad September. It is important for me to do this research in USA, in the
country with the most experience, where I can see, feel and learn as much
as possible about this methodology.</font></font></b>
<br><b><font face="CG Times"><font color="#990000">Maybe you know people
and addresses where I could send my application directly or you know people
who can help me indirectly to find a place in this field.</font></font></b><b><font face="CG Times"><font color="#990000"></font></font></b>
<p><b><font face="CG Times"><font color="#990000">Thanks a lot for your
attention and for your help.</font></font></b><b><font face="CG Times"><font color="#990000"></font></font></b>
<p><b><font face="CG Times"><font color="#990000">With warm greetings from
the cold Bielefeld,</font></font></b><b><font face="CG Times"><font color="#990000"></font></font></b>
