I didn't learn much Finnish because it is a very difficult language and almost impossible to learn within a few months. But I improved my English very well.

It was the correct city to learn German because the people could not speak english (in the DDR they had learned Russian) and thus I was forced to speak in german. Also with also students I had to speak german because their English was not realy good.
