I'm Baaaaaaaaaack!

Yes, I am finally back! Thank you to all those that past by to ask about me...it definitely feels wonderful to know that you were missed..:)..mwaaaa...

By the way, if you're planning to go to Hamburg in the near future then let me give you a clue of what to expect:

(1) If they speak to you in German and you look innocently at them and say "English?" they think you've insulted them

(2) Unless you like freezing your butt off and walking in the snow, don't travel there in March

(3) Seeing an episode of Friends in German makes you wonder why you ever liked that show..it kinda loses it's funniness in German!

(4) When you ask for the menu, don't ask for an English menu, you just don't want them to spit in your food. Just order "Salat" and save yourself the trouble!

(5) The fastest word you'll ever learn is Nine which means No and that's what you'll get everytime you ask a question

(6) Frankfurt airport is not as big as it used to be when you were a kid

(7) In their dictionary tourists means trespassers unless you took the time to learn German

(8) When shopping, take a dictionary with you or you'll end up having a huge fight with the sales woman that knows English but pretends that she doesn't 'coz she can't believe you have the nerve not to know German

(9) Do visit a great Italian restaurant called Verdi and avoid the Indian restaurant right next to it...

(10) Last but not least...forget learning German, learn some Turkish to get by with the Taxi drivers

Bottom line...there's no place like home....and damn I missed my machboos!
