lol i dont remember any bimmers, it was like 3-4 years ago
i lived with a huge group of people from all over europe near the university.. it was supposed to be "summerschool".. but they rented out a club for us daily and we had some crazy times. all i remember is the mall which is 10 mins away from the university, which is pretty nice... and lots of drunk british guys who love to fight
