10:36 am
usually i'd be out in the bath. rarely a time. didn't have one. no. i can't do that in the it's 6 am. and alina is on her way to work. she's doing her trainee ship in a hotel in boca near hamburg. she comes here 3 times a week since the lockdown. only business travelers are allowed for overnight stays a big change for atlanta. for the, for the pan demik we are on the go non stop a lot you to do in contact with people. i get them up having now it's become very monotonous. we say breakfast in that seat of
10:37 am
a father instead of learning how to properly set a table or serve guests, she and her fellow trainees only manage a few business travelers. my what i need most contact with again said, good morning, room number 4444. got them. if you enjoy breakfast or and fossil delighted cook. i love making people happy simply by bringing me a little drink to their table. the think tank of puddings because you can laugh and talk with people. come and now it's don't get to close the roof. we're not keeping the require distance. i live in since everyone's been up time when it comes to having contact with one another contact. but for me, the hospitality industry is facing its biggest crisis since world war 2 turnover has plummeted in germany. revenue dropped 40 percent last year compared to 2019.
10:38 am
the hotel in vocal is running a skeletal operation. so elaina does have some work. but what will happen when her trainees ship ends is tough. i'm afraid of what my future holds in current. what can i do now? we will actually employ name michelle. and that's what really scares me. we've got me in life sick. it's make or break for medical student plead rica. she has a very big exam today. one she's been preparing for for 2 years. she needs to pass in order to carry on with their studies. did you pass? yeah, yeah, well good. i feel great relief and yeah, i'm looking forward to having the rest of the day. i'll talk normally a reason for celebration,
10:39 am
but nothing these days is normal. this naturally fluid us monday says again on the day of course it would be lovely to meet with everyone else in my exam group pushed together. we'll meet out in the evening to them and then 2nd. and then i'll be at home. allison, having a wide evening finish doing nothing mumbling, must have missed readers. he spends most of her time studying alone in her one room apartment in live sick. so landside money when i'm in studying, i basically do everything at my desk from using like say i said i was the day i said so she had the student is in her 4th semester, her mother also studied in live sick lives the night. it was always something of a dream 50 for me, lot of culture to take in more,
10:40 am
more everything on the hold on him. she quickly found her footing at university forming friendships and making plans to hang out. and come in, got over, came along and put an end to everything just as soon as it had begun this going out together and heading to a club or a bomb and everything i was starting to enjoy disappeared and had got a look of fang full. it's a real change in my food, and we shadow me. many of the perks that come along with studying at a university are no longer there. cool, and i'm excellent. and i was a result just because it, you notice that you're not connected to the entire group anymore and you have to actively contact. people owe me tough to keep the connection going and he didn't quite the course you fall out of touch with some people feel it replaced last summer leader rescued a dog named briar from an animal shelter from injury and thought that i
10:41 am
was great. i had had during this intensive period of studying, so i was never really and i didn't get that lonely feeling at night when you get into an empty bed and don't have any body. of course, that dog is that person and adult doesn't replace the partner under contented, but still with adult. you're not a known one is in michelle and me, bryan also forces rica to leave the apartment. those walks help clean up because structure her day and pull her away from her desk. ah ah meanwhile, in the northeastern state of brandenburg,

10:43 am
answer questions. i would come to an f. yes. what's the angle of intersection? the one between the 2 different. correct? 63.4, minus 45. yes. so that's it. yes, that's it. what that all of karl's grades will count toward his high school diploma . he's not the only one worrying when you and this one the fact that the final exam or should be the same difficulty as in past year when i'm listing. it's just a completely different situations of it. we haven't had proper lessons for ages. our work is also being assess differently. there are fewer grades, i mean we don't want to be disadvantaged and have people saying that high school diploma was much easier to get that. but if you a said that to means you were working hard me
10:44 am
kara loves playing soccer, but he hasn't trained with a team for almost a year now. you can get a really nice man painting to and i'm out of practice in for i miss club. so much i'd like to get back to it because exercising at home a lot going on a run just isn't the same for me when it was pleasure for me. and i missed it, but you know, team sports aren't allowed right now. but the other, the alina has an early shift, again, at the hotel, this time she's working alongside her colleague. yes, because more and more alina is plagued with doubts about her future. i just had
10:45 am
a my plan was to work on a cruise ship for 6 months after finishing the chinese ship. if i pass the have a selling our, the i thought the idea was to get experience, meet new people and try out something using us another aisle school year. but i think i can forget all that, i guess. and i said, i don't know if i want to continue on in this industry, venice or not. if it's like a single name, there's no point of i can just say, i want to do this job because i like having contact with the gap on a survey line. one know mentioned by and so i missed the banter with the kitchen to start with their keys. there's no one even in now. i know no. oh man. oh, alaina feels forgotten by politicians. i don't think my voice is really being heard . rog and i thought it's just one little voice among many
10:46 am
political locations doing what i can to get how old line bank will come. this one large claims become prioritizing at the right when i have the feeling, we try nice or size and welcome to the kind of 1900 is making it more difficult for young people to start the korean to be study by the back of my foundation. i'm trainees are feeling insecure. one and 5 fear they won't complete their training shops by light and human, or the young people, especially a struggling pandemic. one, why the about the anxious about the teacher and feel they want to make out the last time when and if you, me, when you study conducted at universities in 25 countries found more than half of students worry, they won't be able to complete this academic year because of coven,
10:47 am
for the young people are missing out on an important piece of their life, from being able to plan for their teacher and discover the world. many are frustrated. we see this psychological burden increases with each additional day and locked down, and the medical students needed rica moved to live sick. 2 years ago she thought her life would look a lot different. it's been immersed. let me start. i shared an apartment with 2 other people, then they each moved out. then i wondered if i should look for new flatmates or find a place to live alone, or that i decided to get my own apartment. and so wondering, and she just, oh, her boyfriend,
10:48 am
adriano began his studies in bavaria last spring. his 1st semester started in lockdown. was that i have since i started studying, i've seen the inside of a lecture hall, maybe 2 or 3 times. that's of course not what i imagined, but i hope things will calm down and next year will be different. both from bach and say, not far from berlin. they've been together since high school. the pandemic has made their long distance relationship, especially challenging what's really difficult is that the rules keep changing. it's hard to know what's allowed and what's not. can i take the train to live fish or not? should we go or stay where we are, or seeing each other so rarely is an added stressor on them. and i, he does, he has learned how to be alone. both are dog and music, bring balance to her life. her parents are musicians and she's played an instrument
10:49 am
since she was a child. as i play the, the owner in the like, sick university orchestra on the i guess that, that feeling of being part of something bigger. and that's what i really like it. but it's not solely about me, but at the same time it wouldn't be the same without me, but i want to miss, i find it's a very special way of making music, and you can't replicate it and become unheard miss. now i, it's been more than a year since the university orchestra played together in brandenburg. carla's back in his room with his laptop in person classes were suspended once again for his grade. after the easter vacation is always the frustration is palpable. i think it's annoying. i was excited to be in class again in august. i'm getting the news at the end of vacation,
10:50 am
really shocked and upset me about a 40 ish and also i'm sick and tired of sitting here staring at my laptop and let to start group. and yet we'll just have to try our best to make progress like this and fill the gaps afterward. so she isn't at the moment when i'm worried about falling behind. when i'll be honest, i haven't finished a lot of things for my online lessons on the screen. i don't always understand everything fully. office seals, many of my friends say they might repeat the 11th grade or end their studies after the 11th grade. with that type of diploma so it's not up in them with them for hobby does not finish. i feel stuck in almost every regard. and because in the end i'm basically confined to my home and went off. and
10:51 am
i thought when i can't keep up with the changing rules, i don't know what's allowed and what's not done done this here. carl is increasingly frustrated. you always get something out of the situation. maybe i just can't see it online, but no, i think for me it's just being a big step backwards in every regard and belong. meanwhile, there's a sense of excitement among alaina and her fellow trainees. they've invited their bosses and instructors to dine at the hotel. everyone's taking a cove at 19 test, especially for the occasion. we need at least 12 tables. committed notes if you will, want to hint, and we want to learn a bit more in preparation for the exam, and we won't get into the swing of how things really work. i will call on which we aren't able to do with vocational school at the moment. called the school i
10:52 am
definitely for calling the hotel kitchen is close to the public during lockdown. so chef training. marcos is also limited to making beds and breakfast, but today he can get hands on experience again. he's preparing a 3 course menu of fish soup, be fillet and a bavarian desert. it's definitely a welcome change. i don't want to see any more beds unless it's my own also my i'm, this is great to cook again. i have really missed the female alaina enter calling t arc are taking care of the table decorations we've caused it to be close. it's been a long time since we've done this. i have of the book, but i'm really enjoying it again. we are

10:55 am
a sense of stability and the feelings that unit is in sessions. and then because all of her lectures are online and available any time critically can, has to force herself to structure her day them. and the shepherd among that says, you have to keep pulling yourself together. you have to be tough with yourself. system that you can't just sit passively through a course and let everything wash over you left me believe then you have to thanks a lot of it. and so of course it's another stress, sean, sucking is more mentally draining them before them as she does what she can to break her monotonous routine as much as much. sometimes in the evening, i put on some makeup and pick out clothes the time i wear on the night towels and make you put them on to see if they saw me. especially, you know, the kinds of things you do before going out. but without going out to perform an
