Guide Frontpage; or "What the Hell is Theory of Knowledge?"

Welcome, reader. This is the Hitchhiker’s Guide to Theory of Knowledge, since it is being written for my Theory of Knowledge (TOK) class, ...

Ninth lesson; or "Malta Knights and friendship"

Guess where we are going today? Malta!



Well, unfortunately, not really. Last class, we were filming a small video for students from Malta. The purpose of it was to have us answer questions about Malta in general and a town named Zabbar, from which the said Maltese students are. Of course, we were forbidden to search anything about Malta beforehand, so this little quiz was all the more interesting. Several questions were easy (like "Where is Malta located?"), others were tough ("What is Zabbar?" or "How do the Maltese say 'My name is...'?") and some were just plain weird ("Do people from Zabbar enjoy winter sports?"). Naturally, we started acting like smart-asses:
-What do people from Malta eat?
-Food... Usually.

-How do the Maltese say 'My name is...'?
-Well, English is one of the official languages, I think, so I guess they say 'My name is...'.

This is a small, innocent activity, but it can definitely create some connection between our two schools, perhaps even a partnership in the future. The Maltese will send us the video they filmed about our location, so expect and update when that happens.

UPDATE
So we got the Maltese video!
Apparently, they are primary-school kids, but they still made about as many mistakes about us, as we did about them. I honestly appreciate the effort they undertook to speak English for this activity. We'll see whether this will become a partnership or something similar.

After our 42nd destination in this galaxy, Malta, we continue on course 211-49. You know what you cannot forget 😉
