At the beginning...

How it all started...
One evening I was watching a WW2 movie where there was one scene of people speaking german to each other.
It was love at the first sound.
Thats how I decided to learn german and want to find someone who can teach me german.
So I went online in a language forum I cant remember the name.
I found bunch of ppl (read: girls) and asked them if we can swap language.
Some replied some werent.
And there is a lady from a town called Osnabrück who agreed to take me as her student.

It was friendship at the beginning until she took me as her godson.

Later I called her Mama Steffi and regarded as the second woman I would put my highest respect after my biological mom.
