Ah, you're going to Europe, America, Germany to become European, learn the language, pick up the passport, all kind of things like that. But the problem is, you come to England, London, and there are no English people. I can't find any English people. I feel like uh I wouldn't or we, you know, the family, brother, sisters came to the wrong place. Is this Europe? Can how many people agree we're in Europe?
