The Pechvogel

I'm a former American expat who lived in Aachen, Germany for a couple years. Now, I'm in The District of Columbia and living as a young professional. I recently moved to the Trinidad/Gallaudet region of DC...an interesting experience for sure. This blog is about my experiences, thoughts and the occasional political article while living in our nation's capitol and my reminiscent memories of the land of Würst,ordnung and good beer.

About Me

I used to spend a lot of my time standing in front of a board discussing the difference between 'much' and 'many' and setting rumors about American life straight. I did this as an English teacher in the land of Würst and Ordnung, Germany. Now I live in The District and blog about all things DC, politics, culture and German. I like to think of myself as a reformed Dr. Fraiser Crane. I like to send this vibe of cultured, knowledgeable gentlemen, but really I'm just a big dork. Sometimes I feel like Jane Goodall and I'm going into the mist. Three years out of university and am beginning to get a feel for what I want in my life. Its a good feeling.
