Two weeks shy of the famous Oktoberfest in the summer of 2024, Emmanuel and his wife Berna of Dongo Paco Foundation (DPFL) had the opportunity to visit the home village of HAU, the sponsor of DPFL, in Bernried, Bavaria-Germany. The stay was filled with several impressions of Munich city and its surroundings.
DPFL has its headquarters at the foot of Adoma Hills at elevation 1122m in Adilang, and this interested us in experiencing the Wank Mountain in Garmisch-Partenkirchen at an elevation 1780m. The Wank Mt with very developed pathways unlike the Adoma hills inspired us on the what could be improved on Adoma hills to make hiking enjoyable and safe.
The highlight of the stay was the dinner at Hotel Seeblick in Bernried with about 40 members of Helfen am Ursprung. Emmanuel and Dr. Albert from the two organizations explained their achievements in the past years and the next step as they gear towards sustainability. The guest of honor at the dinner was the mayor of Bernried, Mr. George Malterer who shared his experiences while in Adilang and expressed their commitment to embrace the future together with DPFL.
A special thanks to Dr. Albert and Robert for making the trip a success.
Very nice memories for all participants! All of us enjoyed the wonderful evening in Bernried!
