I have to say that I am a bit disappointed in customer service, on both sides of the Atlantic. Although I’m not sure I can call the North American issue, “customer service”—but more on that in a day or two. Meanwhile I have happy news to report: my iPhone 3G is, finally, unlocked. Unfortunately it […] It seems really foreign to not own a car—especially as an American. In America it’s as if the second you turn 16, you must get your driver’s license and a car. Of course it didn’t work that way for me: I’ve always been, for the most part, a public transit kind of guy. I actually […] If you were anywhere near me today, I must apologize: I was behaving like an idiot.

While my hosts are busy setting up, I am exploring Regensburg—I’ve never been here before and I have to confess, it’s a charming city. I can immediately see why its popular with tourists from both abroad and Germany.
