Notes from Germany

I am an American expat living in Germany. It's a far away land on the other side of the ocean. It's interesting and often weird here. If you read this and want to comment then email me at blog(the at symbol)chillmost.com. If you find any spelling or grammar mistakes, you can keep them.

Angeber!

Is it possible to learn German in just days? Linguistic savant Daniel Tammet managed to do so in the course of a week. Using his own special technique, the 30-year-old, who has a mild form of autism, has learned to speak more than 10 languages.
Or you can do it my way by hanging out in Spelunken with drunks and other lowlifes that teach you real German.

Drunk German: Hey Ami, du kannst mich voll am Arsch lecken!
Me: Um, nö.
