Going to Germany for a week.
Hey friends!

I'm going to Germany for a week, and wanted to learn a little bit of German before I go there. Specifically, I wanted to be able to introduce myself and tell people a little about myself.

Because of that, I was wondering if someone would be willing to translate this introduction for me:

Hello! My name is Josh. I'm twenty-three years old and two hundred three centimeters tall. I am a freelance web developer from Canada, but I live in Turkey. I manage an aid and food distribution program for refugees. I am in Nuremberg for the "Awakening Europe" conference. My father's family is German, but I never learned German as a child.

Thanks for the help!
Any other tips and tricks for German (or spending time in Germany) would be appreciated!

Answer

Hallo, mein Name ist Josh. Ich bin dreiundzwanzig Jahre alt und 2 Meter 3 groß: Ich komme aus Kanada und bin freiberuflicher Webentwickler, aber ich lebe in der Türkei. Ich organisiere ein Hilfs- und Lebensmittelprogramm für Flüchtlinge. Ich bin wegen der Awakening Europe-Konferenz in Nürnberg: Die Verwandten meines Vaters sind Deutsche, aber ich habe als Kind (leider) nie Deutsch gelernt.

I am not sure if this is very helpful, at least to know how to pronounce it would be necessary.
