Introduction

So I have a blog now, which feels a bit weird... I can say right now that I won't be talking much about my daily activities or posting those sorts of updates, so if that's what you're looking for, send me an email or Skype me or something. I'd much rather post information I find noteworthy, which may include daily activities, the stories told by my grammar professor (they are quite good), or random conjectures about cultural differences and so on. This may be short-lived, or last pretty much the length of my stay. We'll see how it goes.
Also, because I predict that most of my readers will be primarily english speakers, I'll probably add a german word or two per post. Just to help you learn the language. Also, I don't know how to properly describe pronunciation with the right characters, so similar-sounding words will be used.

German word for the day: Einleitung (Ein-lei-tung)
ein as in fine
lei as in lie
tung as in ... toong
definition: see post title.
