When my friend was in Canada, she called me once and it was so difficult. The connection was okay, but it took like 2 seconds till it arrived at my end when she was talking. So it happened often that we talked at the same time or that nobody said anything.
Talking in a foreign language is so much harder. When I write in the internet, I can take my time and eventually look some words up, but talking in real time, that's a bit more difficult.

I'll definitely send you something in the mail though :D
Whee, that's great. If you give me your adress I can mail you something next week. Do you want to have a pictured postcard of Leipzig or some other card?
