Find a Friend and You May Feel differently

• We have lovely friends from Germany who moved here for 2 years. We have known them now for almost ten years. We visit them every two years and they come back to visit us every two years. We have three children the same age. We are worried about the exact same issues with our children a decade later and in two completely foreign countries. We are concerned about our homes in much the same way. My husband may do a cultural exchange with his company and we hope to go to Germany for six months. I am looking forward to meeting new friends. I also know that we will deal with red tape and issues of adjusting to things we do not understand. But, that is why we are going, to have a cultural exchange. Hopefully, we can meet friends as wonderful as we have met when our German friends moved here. We don't always agree on everything political, social, educational, or religious. But, we do see another point of view. And, contrary to popular belief, all the members of my family can locate Germany on a world map as well as other countries. And, contrary to popular belief, my German friends have a wonderful sense of humour and fun. Find a friend there are you may feel differently.
