I wish articles like these provided some kind of a way to get in touch with the person they're about. Even an anonymous email address would be plenty good. I would like to offer some tips and suggest a few companies to apply to, but right now I figure my best bet is to either search Linkedin for the name, or to write the journalist who did the reporting and hope for a reply.

His situation seems like a bit temporary though. His lifestyle feels a bit like a language student but instead of being 20 he's 49. The former minister has an IT degree and speaks English. He's overcoming the language barrier by learning German 4 hours a day. Still, I hope he's able to learn German and find a nice job.

Yeah he holds a British citizenship and has studied in the UK is really not clear why he is delivering food in Leipzig of all places.

I'm still wondering why we didn't try to quash the blatent corruption in Afghanistan's government.

Americans killed in 911 roughly 2900.

Americans (Military, and Contractors) killed in afghanistan 6000 plus.

Yes off topic, but what am I suspose to say about a bike currier who was a big deal back home? Maybe--I'm in a bad mood?
