I follow you; I can see how hard you work, how organized you are. Anyone, who reads your stuff, must notice that you are quite intelligent.
I can not get over the fact, that language was your barrier.
The language I am writing to you in right now, is my second language. Sure, my English will never be perfect, I will always have some accent, but I feel like I can express myself well enough. I have gotten to a point, where I can express certain things easier than in my first language.
Altogether, I know 4 languages.
That's not because it came easy to me, but because I learned.
Learning 10 words per day (weekends off), you will know ~2500 words after a year. 5000 words after 2 years.
The average English-speaker uses ~3000 words (don't quote me on that) during a normal day...
I am planning to leave Germany for good.
I might have to learn an entirely new language.
I can see a lot of challenges along the path, but language is a minor concern, only.
I bet! It has been a joy to watch.
Honestly, this bugs me a little bit.

I'm just a bit crap at languages, and the anxiety I get is huge! Also, I think I'm just very British!
