Heidi & Abdul

Today in German class we got homework (as every day!). We got three pictures to choose from. You have to pick one of them, and then make up a story. This is my story (based on a hugging picture of a "big-boned" Swiss-looking woman and an Arabic man (translation provided for you since I had to write it in (poor - ok very poor) German).

Heidi & Abdul - a story about love without borders

Once upon a time there was a Heidi, who came from Graubunden (canton in Switzerland). In Graubunden people are known for shooting first and asking questions later. Therefore Heidi has become a very strong woman, both physically and mentally.

Last summer Heidi was in Marocko, where she met Abdul. Abdul was born in Casablanca and works as a tourist guide. It was love at first sight.

During the last year Heidi and Abdul have met often. Abdul plans to move to Switzerland this summer, to live with Heidi. He has found a job, also as a tourist guide. He will show the beautiful Switzerland to arabic tourists.

Abdul wants to integrate as soon as possible, and Heidi has enrolled him into a German language course. I think that Abdul will learn German much faster than I.
