Hans im Glück

Hans Hahne ist mit der BAHS-Family verbunden wie kaum ein zweiter. Bereits 1960 kam er und seine Siblings nach Bonn. Seine unglaubliche Begeisterung und Faszination für die Stadt ist ansteckend. Da wundert es nicht, dass er es geschafft hat sein Unternehmen am Ort zu etablieren . Inzwischen ist er selbst ein eingefleischter Bonner geworden.

Damit nicht genug. Wer selbst brennt, kann andere anzünden. So war es Hans der die Initiative übernommen hat zahlreiche Mitglieder der BAHS-Family abermals nach Bonn zu holen. Der Spirit of BAHS steckt in jeder Faser seines Körpers und wird in seinem Handeln sichtbar.

We live the spirit of BAHS

We share the feeling

Caution, risk of infection! No matter where they go or who they encounter on their travels, the Bahs ambassadors spread the spirit of BAHS worldwide. They inspire with their experiences. They touch with their stories. And they inspire with a courage to discover the unknown.

One highlight hunts the next.

Every meeting changes us, every second gives us a new perspective, each look a new image for our memory – that is the Spirit of BAHS.

Back to School

We were Guests at the Bonn International School. The Board Chair had invited us to spend some time on Memorylane. We had coffee and cake there and left with the impression that we all had bin very privileged to visit BAHS.

Warmth, happiness, comradery

Dear friends ! Well, it would be an understatement to say I am overwhelmed by the happiness and positive feelings that came out of our BAHS reunion this past weekend. My friend, Kanthati Supamongkhon, who attended, said it best in one of his comments. I want to thank all of you that were with us for the warmth, happiness, comradery, and good spirit that you brought along to our intense, short time together here in Bonn on the Rhine. Travel safely and live well. Hopefully we will be able to put this together again in the future. Hugs to all of you from Petra, myself and my children. See you soon, wherever that may be..
