May 26. I've been in America for almost 4 days now, but I already managed to crash my bike into a car. The young American girl was probably more scared than I was. - are u ok? - yeah. - u ok? - yeah! i'm fine! I guess she was worried I might sue her, haha.

Traffic, day one: - where to go, where to ride, where to turn, what the ...! By the next day, it was calmer and I seemed to get the hang of it.

Today the family we're staying with arrived. Two little kids - one overly noisy younger one hitting the quiet older one. Sandy, our host, said my English is good and she can't even believe it's this easy to talk to visitors now)
