"Duze"

    Just a quick query in case anybody knows. I am heading to Berlin for a few weeks on Saturday and have been in contact with my host. I sent her an email using the polite form and in her reply she said
    Ich hoffe es ist ok, dass ich dich duze

    Now I think I get what she means, basically "can we use the informal du?"

    Am I right with that? Also, how would you reply in the positive? I can't find anything online, "duze ist gut/perfekt" doesn't seem right. Basically how would you say "yeah it's fine with me to use the informal form?"

    I guess I'd say ja wir koennen uns duzen or more simply ja kein problem/ja gerne

    "Ja, wir koennen uns duzen" I exactly what I was looking for, thanks. I was just going to say "Ja, kein problem" but wanted to include the "duzen" word in it as I suppose it's something that's going to come up more than once! :)
