Have you ever tried Currywurst with Pommes (French fries)? Tasty! Or the thousands of kinds of bread? Mmmh…! Did you ever try fresh raw meat on a bun with some chopped onions? Yummy! What about some sparkling water? It's refreshing and burping is a lot more fun!

Germans always made anything as good as possible, "Made in Germany." We were always on time and keen to work. – I said: We were! Until the sensational expression of "work-life-balance" came across this country… - Oh! What a downfall!!!

But it's still fun here… Fun to live here… Haha! Goodbye! Tschüß! Auf Wiedersehen!
