Ines Schneider asked if the group is for Germans as well.

Ines Schneider asked if the group is for Germans as well.

My answer is "Why yes, it is for everyone who wants to join"

As mentioned in the small box to the lower left side, I started the blog as a networking option for Americans living in the U/NU area. There are actually a lot of ex-soldiers living as Expats here in the region; unfortunately, they don't seem blurf a lot, or use Google to look for other Amis. What I didn't know when I started, is how many Americans live here and work at the Uni, or study here, or just live here married to Germans, etc. 

About the same time that I started the blog, I also met a German guy, with whom I became good friends with, and he introduced me to the English Stammtisch from Dawn and Heather.

They have been organizing the Stammtisch in the Ulmer area neigh on 10 years or so.  I stake no claims whatsoever in starting or organizing the Stammtisch. But, what I did do, is to start posting the invitation mails from Dawn and Heather to my blog. This is very easy, as anyone who has a Blog, may know, as all I do is re-send the mail to a special mail address, and schwupdiwup, its posted.

 

I have received many mails from Americans living in America coming to Ulm, as well as Americans living in Ulm, who are seeking contact and now find it at the Stammtisch.  I am greatly glad for helping, and stress again and again; Stammtisch = Dawn & Heather – Blog & FB Group = Alan

 

As to invitations to the Stammtisch, these will come from Dawn and Heather evermore. I will continue to re-post them on the blog, and will start posting them on the group, and add them to the Events page.

 

Anyone who wishes to join the group is more than welcome. And anyone who just wants to read the blog, is also more than welcome, damn everyone is more than welcome to be more than welcome ;-)e

 

 

YO!
