I'm afraid I'm completely out of my element with these forums. Computers never really made sense to me. You can't get a good feel for people through text and symbols, can you? At least, I can't. Too much happens when you're having a conversation face to face. Can you imagine switching languages? It's all about inflection and tone - and is why you should never learn in a correspondence course. You can't get the that off of these emails or posts or - whatever it is you call them.

That said, my name is Isolde. I've just arrived and any pointers would be useful. Preferably over lunch. Or dinner. Perhaps tea. Brunch? I've realized over the years that the joy of being somewhere new is that your schedule is often free as you have no obligations to fill or people to reconnect with.

Right?
