Friedrichstraße!
I really meant to blog sometime this week, but it escaped me – but now that it’s Saturday night, I have time.
Some how I managed to have something important (mostly fun) to do every single day of the week, after 4 o’clock. The icing on the cake was the fact that my […]
Leopold Museum with a man out front.
A month and a half ago, I thought my travel plans for 2012 were complete: All my trips were taken, save for the one at the end of the year, when I will escape the war zone that is Germany on New Year’s Eve.
Then I heard […]
Two weeks ago I went to Preview Berlin, an art fair held during Berlin Art Week.

Thursday was a fun day – meeting old friends in Leipzig (coffee during a forced one hour layover at the train station), Jena (old work colleagues: I still have a mailbox at the old office. No mail in it), and Weimar (lots of friends).
In the evening I found myself at the gallery opening for […]
So my weekend adventure is in Salzburg, Austria.
The city is most famous for The Sound of Music and all that entails.
Well, not actually, but it is probably the reason that most Americans who visit Salzburg visit Salzburg. The rest of the Americans who visit Salzburg are probably here because of the stunningly beautiful […]

TQE : That Queer Expatriate I'm an American living in Berlin, Germany -- which makes me an expatriate, not an ex-patriot.
