i think the majority of my neighbours are able to communicate in english, which is bad for my german. so basically there is nothing really different in this neighbourhood.
but apart of that, i can talk bla bla bla on the train

which was great since i was preparing for my goethe prüfung, and those strangers simply told me when i spoke wrong. the great part is that i earned more cookies and pralines, as my "hard work in learning german" reward
