    Haha das ist schon lustig. ich habe doch gehört, dass die Deutschen 342618715141461772666 Versicherungen pro Person haben LOL. Ich selber habe Deustch von zwei Muttersprachler gelernt, aber Belgier, also kann ich nicht sagen ob es genau stimmt. Man sagt, die sind strikt, lachen nicht gerne, sind immer pünktlich. sind vernünftig, und arrogant. aus meiner Erfahrung im Fora sind die aber ok.

    I don't feel as a German. Germany is not the country of my heart, so it's not very relevant for me, which reputation German people have. I have always had an affinity with people from different foreign countries to allow me to assimilate foreign languages and cultures. The more multilingual and multiculatural my own life is, the happier I am. My biggest nightmare would be to end up in an old-people's home without computer access where everything is only German, where I cannot use my foreign languages anymore - and where I cannot escape. :(

    Fasuly, sometimes I must live like this, I mean without computer access and where everything is only in french and from where I can't escape. But i think that more and more the internet access is a basic human right.

    When I am old and helpless (if I ever reach such an old age), I see precisely this situation coming for me as well. So can imagine your situation 100 %. Yes, I agree that in these modern times internet access should be regarded as a human right. :)

    I am not old or helpless, I am 22, but for sure internet access must be an important human right, and sometimes if you havnet freedom then if it's not where you living, then you can't access the internet.

    A possibility for you if they accept, is that you use an ipad and the mobile's network. you can go online with this without Wifi, but of course it depend if the place accept that you have yoru ipad.
