Sex and Sun!
There are boobs and butts everywhere here in Germany! Now that I've got your attention, lets talk about something very important and very serious: Clothing, or it this case, the lack there of. You see in Germany, it seems that to sale anything, from baby food to the old proverbial car, you need to...

As the summer approaches...
It is getting cooler, not warmer. What a strange climate we have this year! We were drinking beers (dunkel, of course) on a terrasse in February and this morning it was snowing! And it was really cold; humid and windy, and just plain miserable. And on top of it, I had to go out, buy more ash-trays...

Another grey day in the land of the Wurst!
It is yet another rainy day but honestly, I don't have time to see them these days! I have been busy working on my web-site, reading more e-mails from people who are living here or who are moving now to Germany. It's amazing how the stories of each one sound a bit like mine: same problem with phone...

New on the web!
Hi everyone! This won't be my usual blog entry. It is simply to let you know that I now, finally, have one page on the web. I know we're not suppose to give web-site address, but, what the hecK, I am so happy with my-self right this moment and others have done it! So, there it is:...

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder..
One of my best friend went to Tenerifa some 10-12 years ago and she could not understand why we didn't like it. She sent me a long e-mail with all the things they have seen and done during their three weeks there and I have to say that it sounded wonderful. It is as if we had been to two completely...

Hirschhorn-Neckarsteinach in 5 hours
It was such a beautiful sunny day again (up to 20oC) that we decided to spend it outside walking. We called a friend of us (the one who just came back from her exhausting trip in Spain) and made arrangement for her to meet us at our train station. She lives in Heidelberg and the train to Hirschhorn...

Spain in ten days!
A friend of mine has just came back from a ten days travel through south of Spain and she sounded absolutely exhausted! The reason? She tried to visit 7 or 8 towns in 10 days! She should have known better; she's been living in Europe for a few months now, but still, she did the same mistake that a...

Learning German
After months of trying hard and not really succeeding, I've decided to give another language school a try. It has been almost 6 months ago now that I started learning German at a language school in Heidelberg and I still can't have a proper conversation with people in German (I could talk in Spanish...

Spring at last?
It stops snowing and all the snow is gone so, maybe, Spring is here at last! I went to the little village Market with my son yesterday and because of the bad weather there were only three merchants instead of the 7 or 8 that are usually there. But the fountain of the Marktplatz was still decorated...

The making of a tunnel!
Early this morning we've heard for the second time in two days a big "boom" close by: the making of the tunnel that's going under the mountain where our street is. They have been hard working on it for the last month or so, this after finishing the bridge over the river in 2002! Yep, even in Germany...
