The Karthaus summer school was accommodated in the excellent hotel Zur Goldenen Rose.
Traditionally the summer school has several musical events. This year we had two, both after dinner: one on Saturday the 13th and the other on Friday the 19th. Lyrics and more can be found here.
Some participants were not only truly artistic photographers, but also made a few nice videos. You can check them here.
Italy is known for its great food. Go to this page for an overview of the Schnastal valley cuisine.
