I still have friends there; a German couple we met - well, my (1st) husband met him when he arrived...he (the friend) was a taxi driver as well as a teacher; so when I arrived, and needed a taxi, I'd call him. We became friends; met his fiance; attended their wedding...and did a lot of fun things together!

It's been hard not to really get to put roots down or have that all American dream home.
