The amount of information gathering on the net is amazing (and frightening).

When I went to Berlin in the beginning of 2019 to study German language and culture I obtained my accommodations through the Institute. Much to my surprise my housemate was a 30 year old Czech nurse. We lived together again in 2020 and over time became mutual best fiends.

In July of 2020 she started a new job in Regensburg and moved to an apartment there while I returned to the US.

She was really proud of her new apartment, so I decided to send her a housewarming gift.

I purchased a nice framed art print of the Berlin skyline printed on linen. I bought it on the German website of a Swedish company paying in Euros with my German credit card and had it shipped directly to my fiend.

Before the day was over that picture showed up on my wife's computer in Virginia.
