Regensburg Expat Dinner - January 13

by Christina Geyer on December 14, 2007

Next Regensburg expat and friends dinner will be Sunday, January 13th.  Since everyone seemed happy with the time and place last time, let’s stick with 5pm at Meiers Restaurant at Stadtamhof 15.  Please pass this on to anyone who might be interested.  Leave a comment if you’ll be there and I’ll reserve a table.

Meier is great traditional-looking pub that, at 5pm, is generally smoke-free and child-friendly. They serve delicious modern German cuisine with dinners costing 8-15 Euro

Oh oh oh! I want to come! We’ll just be moving in that week, though, so I’m having a hard time deciding whether we’ll really be up for it. By what day do you want to have a final headcount?

I’ll need a final headcount by the day before (although I’m sure if it’s just a few people, that they can add on a table last minute). It would be nice to have a rough estimate a week earlier though. If we have a big turnout, we might need to reserve the whole room.

And Penny, Chris and little Nathan have RSVP’d that they will be there!

I’m in, but I’ll be flying solo (Sarah’ll be attending a wedding in the U.S.… again).

I just discovered your site and would like to visit it so I can keep up on all things German.
I first went to Germany in 1970 as an Army Lieutenant and returned to the U.S. in 1974. I came back with a German car, German clothes, German furnituere and a German wife. I still have the wife and she has a German car.
We return almost eveyother year to visit family and friends. Unfortunately, the number in the family is dimishing with each passing year.
So I will listen in to keep up on things there and may thrown in a commet or two along the way, If you don’t mine.

@cliff: Great that you’re coming. We’ll plan a girlie luncheon for when Sarah is back.

@butch: Welcome, Butch! I’ve seen you on German Way. You’re presence and comments are very welcome here.

Hi, I’ll be moving to Regensburg in the first week of ‘08 and would like to come and meet some new people/locals. Count me in!

That is so cool youv’e got a good following of expats! Loving your blog too. Cheers from an expat in Vancouver misssing Europe.

Wish my husband and I could be there for the dinner. We are Chicagoans arriving the following week to visit Regensburg - considering moving there with our two young daughters. Do you have a suggested site or info on international (American) schools in the area? I’d love to learn more about life is like living as an expat in Regensburg and have questions if anyone is willing to share. THANKS!

Hi Ann, unfortunately, I don’t know anything about international schools here, but I think there aren’t any. Try contacting B. over at Eurotrippen. I know she considered moving here and looked into schools. Or maybe some of my other Regensburg-area readers can help? As for sites, I only know of the official Regensburg site.

Here’s what I found with Google:

Might not help you, especially if they delay their planned opening.

Thank you so much for the information!! My husband and I fly in to Munich on Wednesday and will make our way to Regensburg Thursday, January 17. If there is an expat from the states that is available either location to talk over coffee, I would appreciate it. Enjoy the dinner outing on the 13th! Again, thank you for your help in regards to schools.

Hey, this may be unrelated - but I am so surprized. I mean, I was in Regensburg on the 15 of December this year… Incredible. I never realized that was where you guys met. All I remember food-wise is the Lucindamarkt tho. ))

13 Christina G January 16, 2008 at 2:27 pm

@ann: How long are you in Regensburg for? Unfortunately, I’m booked pretty solid for the next few days.

@maria: Many of us live around Regensburg. I haven’t heard of Lucindamarkt though… If you make it back here, you need to tell us and maybe we can meet up for coffee or something!

It would have been great to meet everyone at the expat get together in January - but we were a week too late. However, we LOVED Regensburg (and took the advice for bratwrst at Wurstkuchl - yum)! My husband and I came back to the States and are going on with the next level of transferring - the HR discussion. We’l see what happens - and who knows, maybe we’ll meet up at another expat dinner in the future. By the way Christina, I love reading your blogs!
