... *is speechless*
Sep. 15th, 2005 08:20 pmSo there's this docu-soap on Arte (the "cultural" French-German channel) on Germans trying to start a new life in foreign countries.
One of the families followed is a young family (parents left because of unemployment, with 2 young kids that look no older than 6), that leaves with 20 000 Euros, all their savings, for New Zealand, where they'll have 6 months to find jobs or they'll have to go back to Germany.
None of them is fluent in English. And they picked the first town they're going to live in "on instinct", among other things because they liked the name. Not having any clue if they'll find a job there. And it seems to be too small to find a job in the woman's field (something related to architecture?).
Am I the only one here who thinks that you know, there's being brave and adventurous, and then there's being stupid and careless? And the difference between both is planning and being informed, mostly?
