In Germany there is a saying “Wenn einer einer Reise tut, dann kann er was erzählen.”, which basicly states the obvious observation “If you travel, there is a lot you can talk about afterward.” Everyone wants stories, a few nice words, knowledge where you have been and most importantly: what those places looked like. One of the easiest ways to meet all that at once is to send tons of postcards. In todays lesson John is going to do just that and we will accompany him to the post office.
