Emigrating to America can be a funny and entertaining experience. Nicole Wilson shares her humorous misadventures as she moved from Duesseldorf, Germany, to the Seattle area.This almost true story recalls the first two years Wilson spent learning about her new country. She was accustomed to the sophisticated ways of living in a German city but found herself transformed from a city girl with a 9 to 5 office job to a country girl, raising horses and planting a garden. There were numerous adjustments along the way. Life in America seemed like a continuous, hilarious and adventurous learning experience.Wilson dealt with the blending and clashing of cultures. Overcoming language barriers was probably her most difficult adjustment. But she saw the humor and necessity in learning the slang, sayings, idioms and words that are not in any dictionary.
