Living in TLF is a really great way to adjust to living in a different country. It has both American and German electrical outlets, German appliances except the washer/dryer, and American open living concept. It allows you to get use to a few different things without a complete immersion experience.
Bought eggs and was blown away when each of them had a stamp on them
Simple things like flushing the toilet are just a little different
Love the windows that open two ways: tilt in and open on a hing.
Some of the other things to get use to:
Km instead of miles
Baking in Celsius
All German road signs
Drivers going really fast
There are other things that are really easy to get use to:
The weather (hasn't been above 75)
The friendliness of the people
Ward members that I haven't even meet yet that are willing to help
I am sure that eventually all these things will seem common place.
