		<description><![CDATA[Recently I enjoyed reading Julia Child&#8217;s My Life in France (with Alex Prud&#8217;homme). It&#8217;s a great book (and the first one I ever read as a Kindle edition on my iPhone). Anyone who has lived abroad or spent only a brief time in the French capital will appreciate it even more. Julia&#8217;s husband Paul worked [...]]]></description>

I finally learned the little cultural tricks in Germany, like not putting my hand out for change at the bakery, but waiting for them to place it on the little tray on the counter, and [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I admit that I was probably a bit whingey in my last message. I&#8217;ve had some time to get over my homesickness for Germany and Europe and embrace San Diego. It&#8217;s nothing like Deutschland, but the living is so easy and the weather is as perfect (always in the 20s C/70s F and no humidity) [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Weakness is often, to mangle a perfectly good cliche, in the eye of a beholder.
People move to Germany for lots of reasons.  Following a loved one who has had a transfer, caring for family, learning experience, new adventures and so on.  It can be a dream come true.   Eventually, though, most of us have to [...]]]></description>

I sent an email to a gentleman at a German publishing house with whom I had been corresponding, only to get a reply from his secretary that read: &#8220;Danke für Ihr Mail an Herrn K.

There are so many things I love about living in Germany. This move happened quickly, and it was a choice for us, but it is scary and I [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[We&#8217;re a long way away from our Swabian village. Here in sunny California, the roads are wide, parking is plentiful and you throw everything away in one place. Welcome to the land of plenty. We&#8217;ve been here for one week, and my mind has been in a big jumble sorting out major decisions such as [...]]]></description>
