In response to this post. That was something I actually found out by going to Germany the second time around. It’s Emmentaler. Ha! Well, “emmentaler” actually refers to a specific cheese from a specific region (but so do most cheese names) but I’m going to allow myself the satisfaction of saying I answered that question.

Emmentaler.

Deutschland Superlatives!
Posted in europe, germany, tagged europe, germany, study abroad, travel on Friday 8 September 2006 | Leave a Comment »
I figured now that the trip has finished and I’ve had some reasonable amount of time to reflect on my experiences in Europe and Germany in particular, I’d create my own list of weird superlatives (or top-5 or 10 lists) and give you a basic rundown of things I observed that I have never really [...]
No Prague, but…

Just to update: Prague is unfortunately a no-go. They were booked as of Tuesday, early, so I was placed on the waiting list. They let a few people in, but I was too far down to actually get into the trip. My roommate and a bunch of other people are going. Ah, well. Mary and [...]

From Paris… ancient pictures of my last day in the City of Lights:
Album style
And soon… when I actually post the entry and get my lights to work and such… Saltzburg, Austria!

[Written 4 Juli]
Sorry for the post haitus… my trip was very interesting, as was my first day in München. München is a very interesting city, from the little I’ve been able to see of it. I’ve only seen about 5 square blocks and it’s my second day here, but I hope to see more as [...]
France v. Brazil
Posted in europe, oddity, tagged france on Saturday 1 July 2006 | Leave a Comment »
People are going nuts (screaming, singing, outside my window) about the World Cup match tonight — France against Brazil. Brazil has been expected to win overall, by many accounts, so tonight’s game is rather monumental. If I had television access, or had the guts to go to the bar I can hear outside my window, [...]
Ich bin eine Touristin!

Whew. What an interesting city Paris is!
I started off the day by going downstairs to find croissants and coffee waiting in the hotel. The croissant… was fantastic. Nothing in America has ever compared (and I love croissants). The coffee was strong and black, except for my Splenda, and in addition to the croissant was a [...]
