The World According To Me

Legal Alien in New York

USA | Friday, 26 September 2008 | Views [456] | Comments [1]

My first days are really over now and I got settled in the city, so I thought it might be also time to set up my travel-blog. I decided to write in english, because that's the reason I'm here and although it's not really good up to now I hope it will get better in the future.

In the early days I had mixed feeling about my trip. First time abroad and working in a foreign country. Having no friends, even not knowing anyone, but I was optimistic that in a huge city like this things will work out and now, after nealy a month, I can say: They did.

Work is going better every day and though I still don't have a clue of the american legal system and I'm afraid, I won't be an expert when I come back to Austria. But it is a great experience, if only because I improved my english.

I will see what the future brings, but so far I'm very happy in the present.

PS:It's just 3 weeks since I'm here, so please excuse all mistakes and wrong formulation in my texts ;-)

Dear Linda,
your English is very much better than mine. Are there more pictures at this page or only this one? Friday we make a good-bye-party for Irene and Isabella. We miss you!!! I'd prefere to write in German, because the time, I learned English is very, very long away.

Ich hoffe, es geht Dir sonst gut und Du genießt die Zeit. Pass bitte auf Dich auf und kauf nicht alles auf, die Amis wollen auch noch was von ihren Schnäppchen haben ;-)))
Dickes Bussi, mein Herzipinkischatzmausispatzi (siehst, das gibts in Englisch gar nicht), ich vermisse Dich sehr, hoffe aber, dass Du nicht allzu oft an uns denkst.
Ach ja, These hat mich gestern besucht/vom Büro abgeholt, wir waren im DZ und dann im Strandcafe, die letzten Sonnenstrahlen erhaschen, denn heute pisst es wieder gewaltig und es ist bitterkalt. Sie ist jetzt wieder für drei Wochen in Berlin.
Bis bald mein Liebes, knutsch Dich ganz lieb und knuddel Dich ganz herzlich, ganz liebe Grüße, Gaby
