Is this why holmes hasn't been here?

Hi holmes,
So the Netherlands it is...I just have not seen the countries leader on German television...and I avoid watching soccer since it is both boring and the nationalist undertones that go along with it makes one think the first world war is in full swing when a match is being played.

Anyhow you must not be fully integrated into German culture

I most certainly hope not...while I don't mind living here..the last thing I would like to be is German...ok second to last..I don't want to be French either Denmark's government shifted drastically to the right...though it probably would have little effect on the larger cities particularly Copenhagen. I mean Munich is in the middle of the absolute most conservative state in Germany yet it has a very international population and has an almost far left local government. I would recommend Sweden as another possibility...both a spectacular country and exceptionally nice people.

That nixes my trip to the lederhosen tent at the local square.

..not necessarily...did I forget to mention how oddly the locals dress..every day? After 2 or 3 beers I doubt we will notice...you won't even care what animal parts are in the Weisswurst.
