Well I'm new in Munich too ...kinda!

Hello everybody!

As my topic already says...I am new to Munich, welll kinda.
I just got back from my 2 year stay in Boston, MA and I really feel lost in the city that I grew up in. I found this great forum by accident, which could help me a lot, cause I miss speaking, thinking, dreaming in english and I would just love to meet some nice Americans (female/male) here, so we can meet up!
A little bit about myself, I am currently doing an internship at a big company in Munich. I live in Fürstenfeldbruck which quite a trainride away from downtown...but I gotta get used to taking the train instead of the car...hihi
21 years old...so no country can tell me that I am too young to go out :-)

hope to hear from anyone soon...!

Sarah

huh, only want to meet Amis eh. cheeky.

welcome home anyway

well, you know how I meant it... everybody is welcome...
next time I include aussies, british, irish, maltese, south african, canadian, carribeans...

welcome home schlimmdue. plenty of opportunities to practise your english in these parts. lots of damn bostonites as well. (greenliner myself). check out the calendar, pick an event and come on out.

If you feel like being charitable, join us for the practise your german over drinks. Theres a few kindly souls that come out but additional tolerant natives are always appreciated.

Hey, Schlimmdue - where did you live in Boston? I miss it a lot but I love it here in Munich too!

I lived in Newton...not the real Boston but very very close. Where did you live?

Started in Brookline(Beacon St - great for the Boston Marathon), then moved out to Newton(right on Washington St), then to Natick(cheaper but not as much fun) and then to Melrose (north of the city, better location for mountain biking after work). I loved it.

So true! However, the taxes are going like Wellesley and the people are going like Framingham...

Natick man myself. A few blocks from Rt 135, so we get great viewing of the Marathon at a good point where the runners have really started to separate.

@jml: Bostonites? Try Bostonians Either way, just don't call us 'Beantowners'

Is there another type of American I don't know about?

something new to discuss over a beer KT, the new race of " nice Americans"!

Well I have to say that Boston and suburbs always had a place for me for every mood:

drink 'til you drop: TGI Fridays in Natick/Framingham
eat late: IHOP in Brighton
meet all different cultures in BOS: Dorchester
Party: downtown
shopping: Cambridge, braintree
feel really, really safe: Newton
feel expensive: Newbury/Back Bay
dont wanna go there: Roxbury crossing...esp. when you're blond and blue eyed...well

...ya i loved Boston too - i was only there for a couple of days on my way into Canada - i got a few days off work near NY City and made the trip North - i remember getting the mail-train at 4am and arriving into Boston around 10am -

i collapsed on Boston Common a short time later, only to find when i woke up, that kids were using my head as a goalpost!

After that - a quick walk around Harvard - i asked a few lads playing football if i could play and they said 'sure' and after a while we had a full game 11-a-side with several subs on each team and every continient on the planet represented... really cool... that was five years ago now -

wow, doesn't seem that long ago
