For the duration of the Football World Cup in Brazil, it looks like I will be back roaming the sports department at DW. After working as a correspondent for the Euro 2008 tournament and the 2010 World Cup, I’m pleased to be back lacing up the boots again.

This time it won’t be on location though. I’ll be staying in Bonn helping with DW’s special Brazil World Cup webpage.  Once the tournament gets going, the page should be absolutely overflowing with match updates and quirky reports from in and around the World Cup in Brazil.

I probably would have struggled getting accommodation in the World Cup cities anyway, right? Although, there are still some accommodation options available, I’m told. For those that want to stay at Ronaldinho’s house in Rio de Janeiro for instance, it only costs around 15,000 USD a night. Maybe still an option for some of you? The lounge looks nice.
