Weekly Winners – 14 December 2008

December 14, 2008

December 7 – December 13, 2008 This was a busy week with lots going on. We visited three Weihnachtsmärkte (Christmas Markets) in Regensburg, showed around some friends from Munich, and Oliver had an operation. He’s recovering well.

The Answers, part II: living in Germany, living in general, and kids

April 4, 2008

What is the best part about living in Germany? What is the hardest? The best part about living in Germany is probably the socialized medicine. You hear stories about illnesses making people bankrupt in the US, and I don’t have to worry at all about that here. If, God forbid, Oliver was autistic, or Rainer [...]
