Today we're starting our new interview series "voices" and welcome Aya Degani in "Over a Glass" as our first interview guest. Having open dialogues about the issues of our times is one of the core ideas of this podcast. Next to documenting the personal journeys of Hannah and Rosi, this show is about talking, discussing and sharing with other young, engaged peers of their generation. Aya Degani is a dancer from Israel and a good friend of Hannah. Why we thought Aya would be the perfect first interview guest? Because she can give us an outside eye to Europe. We talk about Aya's life so far, her perception and experience of Europe, what growing up in Israel has taught her as well as the difference between the dance scene in Israel and Europe. And in case your're heading to Israel soon, she gave great cultural tips for our famous category with the ironic name "Ist das Kunst oder kann das weg?" ("Is that art or rubbish?"): The Tel Aviv Museum of Art, the Israel Museum in Jerusalem & the 'Curtain Up Festival' in the Arts Centre Suzanne Dellal in Tel Aviv.

We started the day very early with Turkish Coffee, and a really interesting talk evolved in this episode, where you'll surely get to see Europe in a different light. Hannah, Rosi & Aya are looking forward to your reactions on instagram @auf_ein_glas or e-mail [email protected].

Yalla, Sababa, enjoy and hear you next week from Frankfurt! Stay tuned!
