Being a foreigner in my very first month here in Germany, I found it quite hard to get in a society. Although I tried to open up my self to others around me, I still felt like I was not belong to any of groups here. Moreover, I also had a felling of having noting in common and not connect to others. | Being a foreigner in my very first month here in Germany, I found it quite hard to get in a society.
