    Post Moin is the right way to say hello over here

    Moin or hello to you all.

    So, what's the best to begin with.

    Maybe you already noticed, I'm not a native english speaker. My native tounge is rather a low german influenced high german. That's the origin of "moin" by the way.

    I've been drawing maps of fictional realms I've invented since my mid-teens. Sometimes I've drawn more, sometimes I've almost forgot about my hobby. But then I started studying geology and you know, you have to work a lot with maps of all kinds in geology. So the spark ignited again.
    And by chance I found out about this forum yesterday.

    So here I am, hoping for a good time and nice discussions.

    Welcome, Yoscha,

    I'm not a native English speaker either - I'm Afrikaans, from South Africa - but I'm sure you'll fit right in.

    Done .

    And @languages:
    (High) German: native
    English: good
    Spanish: mediocre
    Dutch: mediocre
    Lower German: basics
    French: I'm able to read it

    So I guess we'll probably find a way to communicate .
