Translation of tanteo

I remember that after highschool I went to study English in New York. First I did not know whether the city was right for me cause I wanted a place where I would not feel lost. However, it was the right choice.
I usually do not travel, and if I do, then only to England, when I visit my parents who live in a suburb of London. I can not afford to travel too much, because it is a very large expense.
I come from Bavaria and live in Munich. How are you? Sorry that I am replying your email just now, but again I am covered with work. My boss is back from vacation and gives me many assignments.
