Im German born. Never lived anywhere else.
I love to travel but I also love coming home :smt001
Oddly, Germany has been a "part" of my life for years, but in a round about way. I took German for 3 years in high school. For some reason, I just loved anything German. The food, the language, the country. And I have never been, even though I have lots of opportunity to through my occupation. And I have designed trips to Germany for others to enjoy it, especially during Christmas time with their amazing markets, so I feel a real kinship to it.
Plus, my best friend has married 3 times to German men, and her 3rd husband, all he talks to me about is Germany and how great the Germans are, their influences and everything they invented, its a trip talking to him, lol

I also worked closely with a German lady who didn't speak English well, and when I go visit Greece, the #1 tourists that go too...are Germans. Plus I'd hear from the Navy and Military brothas how much the German Chicks loved and received them, which was surprising to us Aussies because of the History etc... Gosh this turned into a long post, lol...ok, let me stop!
Ps, I can make Black Forest Cherry cake from scratch and to this day, it's my fav cake! :razz:
