Share a story, ask a question, or start a conversation about (almost) anything you desire. Maybe you'll make some friends in the process.
RULES
- Be respectful: no harassment, hate speech, bigotry, and/or trolling.
- Encourage conversation in your OP. This means including heavily implicative subject matter when you can and also engaging in your thread when possible.
- Avoid controversial topics (e.g. politics or societal debates).
- Stay calm: Don’t post angry or to vent or complain. We are a place where everyone can forget about their everyday or not so everyday worries for a moment. Venting, complaining, or posting from a place of anger or resentment doesn't fit the atmosphere we try to foster at all. Feel free to post those on [email protected]
- Keep it clean and SFW
- No solicitation such as ads, promotional content, spam, surveys etc.

*vacation. There was no holiday, which means Holy Day.
Aussies don't tend to use the word vacation. Not sure about Germans.
Germans don't tend to speak English /s
The beautiful thing about not being a native speaker is that you can choose between adapting British or American English. Most people over here seem to lean towards American English. I myself try to be as British/Aussie as I can with my English.
