I went into Odegaard library to find someone to interview. I went up to a male student that didn't have headphones in and hoped that he would not be to busy to answer my question. I introduced myself and said I was conducting an interview in preparation to study abroad. I then asked him if it would be okay if I asked him a question. After he agreed I recited the question to him. At first he was confused with the context of the question, since at the time he was being interview, but in the scenario of the question he was doing the interviewing. Once we had the logistics figured out he answered the question without hesitation. I could tell by his responce and the ease with which he answered the question that he had previous knowledge on the topic and had thought about it before. As an interviewer I found it relatively easy to approach someone and ask them a question, but I think this may have been because I was in a library full of students that are focused on their achieving their academic goals and as a result are willing to aid other people in accomplishing theirs. I assume that when I am interviewing people in Berlin interactions could be more awkward and I might not always receive such an eloquent and thought out answer.
