Thanks to a Humboldt Foundation scholarship, 35-year-old George Bondor from Romania has spent the past year working at Freiburg University's Institute of Philosophy.

There, he's investigating the influence of the individual on the course of history and vice versa. It's a topic that once occupied German philospher Marin Heidegger, a former Freiburg University rector. The Black Forest city offers Bondor unequalled access to the original sources he needs. And there's also a famous walk here, that Heidegger once used to think things over. Bondor only has a few more months to follow the trail of his famous predecessor. At the end of the year he'll return to his family in Romania.
