| 15th June 2009 mom | - From: Frohnleiten & White-Water Rafting Shrinkage said George..........the pool was cold! |
| 15th June 2009 Nanny | - From: Salzkammergut WOW! WOW!! WOW!!!. Absolutely spectacular pictures. I am with the rest sooo jealous. The house trees are called espaliering, which is a form of pruning so that the leaves and fruit or flowers are only on the front side. Very intricate but beautiful to look at........Love ya, Nanny |
| 9th June 2009 Barbara | - From: Salzkammergut Awesome pictures, Matthew. Thanks! I would agree with Hillary about the camping. |
| 8th June 2009 Mom | Young Buck!!! - From: Salzkammergut Very,very cool pictures. Think they are my favorites so far! Kristy with the signs and Regina in the hills....LOL!!! |
| 8th June 2009 hillary | jealous - From: Salzkammergut Wow, very jealous. (Except for the camping part.) |
| 2nd June 2009 Nanny | wine country - From: The Wine Region Matthew those pictures truly showed one of the prettiest places you all have been to. Great shots.........and I am sure the tasting was just as good..........the clock always saying 12 is like we boaters......its always 5 o'clock somewhere!!!! The Austrians are pretty clever with the klapotetz.......... should erect those on some of the buildings to keep pidgeons away. Love, Nanny |
| 31st May 2009 kristy | - From: The Wine Region The sign of one thousand signs is my nightmare! Can't wait to see you! xok |
| 16th May 2009 Mom | - From: Baerenschuetzklamm I thought I told you to get off the rocks!!!!!! |
| 13th May 2009 Nanny | not for me - From: Baerenschuetzklamm The pictures were fantastic and the scenery gorgeous but forget about the ladders. I would have turned back......Love, Nanny |
| 11th May 2009 kristy | - From: Baerenschuetzklamm Those pictures are great! Love the ones from the peak! You are going to have a fabulous coffee table photo book to create! Of course, since you don't drink coffee, I'll table it for you!!! xok |
| 11th May 2009 Hillary | Falling - From: Baerenschuetzklamm Glad you didn't fall! Anyway, much more exciting than all of our lives here.......... |
| 25th April 2009 nanny | great trip - From: Easter in Europe Sounds like you had a great time all over.....you do need to visit other parts of Germany.....people say similiar things about New York and Paris, so maybe you include Berlin....for the most part everyone is the same all over....some are just better to you.... now where are you going next with your traveling buddies? Love, Grampy |
| 25th April 2009 Nanny | - From: Easter in Europe What a feat to take us thru the travels of Matthew and friends. Loved it..........Your culinary tastes are improving...... we will have you eating chicken feet and sea slugs yet!!!!!!!!!! To experience the cultures of others is what is so rewarding.........but beating women with those twigs for treats..........I don't think I like that one myself!!!!!!!!!!!! Pictures were great to go along with the blog. Thanks for the effort. Know that it was a lot but we all loved it. Love ya, Nanny |
| 25th April 2009 Barbara | WOW - From: Easter in Europe What a wonderful trip, Matthew! Sounds like a great time. Should we be expecting a motorcycle on Linden Street anytime soon???? I know it takes a great deal of time to write and put your pictures up, but I so love hearing about your adventures. Take care and hopefully we will hear from you soon. |
| 24th April 2009 Mom | - From: Easter in Europe Wow! Sounds like you spent a lot of time writing this. I know I appreciate it!!!!! Glad you had fun. Munich is nicer! |
| 24th April 2009 kristy | - From: Easter in Europe poor wabbit! great pictures! miss you!xok |
| 3rd April 2009 Barbara | - From: Easter Vacation Good to hear from you, Matthew. I was getting worried. I check with Mom to find out what you are up to. Have a safe and fun trip and Happy Easter! |
| 17th March 2009 kristy | - From: Americans in Austria Thanks for the nod! I'm glad Chia and Banks had such an awesome tour guide! Maybe they'll have to send you a blog to post from their perspective! Hopefully Chia's photogenious self got some great pics! Just got back from 85 degree Florida to 45 degree VA! Counting down the days till you return and look forward to reading about your adventures from now until then! xok |
| 17th March 2009 anonymous | - From: Americans in Austria pretty soon you're gonna have to start charging for services as a tour guide! |
| 15th March 2009 Mom | - From: Americans in Austria Very nice....if only Kristy knew how to make steak grinders! Hope she brings back lots of pictures of the both of you. |
| 24th February 2009 regina | - From: Sweden, ja? my shower is much better! Told ya you should have brought a flashlight! Looks like it was great...once again...kudos for taking advantage of all the opportunities! |
| 24th February 2009 Grampy | - From: Sweden, ja? It sounds like you had a great time.....to bad you missed the Herring and the Moose for dinner. Sweden is a nice country to visit. Perhaps you should visit in summer as they really have one. Keep up the blog as we do read it carefully. A minor correction....the Vasa heeled, not keeled. Also it good to hear from you. |
| 23rd February 2009 Nanny | Hey, - From: Sweden, ja? Hey, What a great blog. But it sure looked cold. If I ever went I think spring or summer would be the time. You should be starting a book for other exchange students.....all the ins and outs of how to see countries and especially how to get seats on planes...........Love ya Nanny |
| 22nd February 2009 MooseIsLoose | - From: Sweden, ja? My friend Mika from UVM is studying in Athens this semester and we've been talking about arranging a little exchange between Austria and Greece in fact... Or I can visit Maria and Lela. "If my good leg don't go down, I don't go down." |
| 22nd February 2009 Mom | - From: Sweden, ja? Too cold for me.........looked on page 27 in the ikea book and you are right! I think you need to go somewhere warm now....Greece? |
| 15th February 2009 Bernadette50 | Nicht schlecht! - From: Lazy Days in Graz Ich finde deinen Blog echt super! Es ist interssant wie du uns Österreicher und unsere Traditionen beschreibst. Außerdem wollte ich dir noch ein Kompliment für deine guten Deutschkenntnisse machen: Die sind echt schon sehr gut! Viel Spaß noch in meinem Heimatland =) Baba und liebe Grüße Bernadette P.S. Wenn du etwas nicht verstanden hast, I can speak english too ;-) |
| 14th February 2009 kristy | - From: Country Hopping by Foot I can't believe how beautiful and storybook Switzerland is! You are some lucky guy! I am so jealous!!! I'm sure you've sent my swiss chocolate valentine - it's probably in the mail! You look fabulous and so happy! Miss you! xok |
| 14th February 2009 Barbara | - From: Country Hopping by Foot Awesome pictures, Matthew |
| 13th February 2009 Mom | - From: Country Hopping by Foot One lucky guy! |
| 13th February 2009 MooseIsLoose | - From: Country Hopping by Foot I don't need to carry my passport, I have a card that I have with me that replaces my passport, 'cause it lists me as an inhabitant of Austria, so I only need my passport when I'm in another country...it's a pretty sweet deal haha |
| 13th February 2009 Hillary | Federer (my "exception" a la Friends) - From: Country Hopping by Foot Thanks for the Federer thing. It kind of looked like him on the money you had a picture of. Second, I don't think you should be going places without your passport on you. Doesn't seem smart. |
| 6th February 2009 Nanny | do you speak Swedish also??????// - From: Lazy Days in Graz There is no stopping you kids is there..........somehow I feel you will have a hard time settling down to our very routine life when you get home............. but am so happy that you are able to see so much of this world. So the adventure continues with you........ Pics came thru so now I can see what a handsome group you all are........ we had ice on the deck this morning..hows that? Love ya, Nanny |
| 6th February 2009 Mom | - From: Lazy Days in Graz Nice wheels....keep in touch .....In Licthenstein....big castle..can see from the "hotel". Lots of fun there! way back when!!!!!1978. |
| 5th February 2009 Regina | - From: Lazy Days in Graz I was impressed there for a minute as I tried to decipher what the heck you were talking about! Matthew...bring a flashlight...Sweden only has a few hours of sunlight at this time of year! Sounds fabulous! |
| 5th February 2009 Hillary | L'arco rampante - From: Lazy Days in Graz L'arco rampante controbilancia le spinte laterali di altre struttura spingenti (archi, volte), frazionando gradualmente le spinte orizzontali fino ad annullarle. Si favorisce così l'elevazione dell'edificio contenendo l'energia di spinta, e permette in tal modo alla costruzione di innalzarsi in uno slancio verticale altrimenti impossibile da realizzare in un edificio semplice in muratura. Come on, that's common knowledge, the mechanics of the flying buttress, in italiano. (Nah, copied it from Wikipedia.) |
| 3rd February 2009 Mom | - From: Sweet, Sweet Vacation Let me know your plans!!! Guess what? Your Christmas present came back today!!!! I will unpack it and send with Rachel and Banks!!!! Fun games to play......New undies....so buy any! |
| 3rd February 2009 Barbara Iacoi | - From: Sweet, Sweet Vacation Don't worry Matthew, with your brains and those pearly whites you will go far. I just love the idea of learning the waltz before leaving high school. Can't wait to hear about your next adventure. |
| 3rd February 2009 nanny, | shadow - From: Sweet, Sweet Vacation Hi, Guess the ground hog saw his shadow here...........cold in Florida..boat not in the water yet but glad to hear you are well and that the tests are behind you..........what a fiasco with the exams. Whats with the pics. could not get them they were all black. Love Nanny |
| 2nd February 2009 kristy | - From: Sweet, Sweet Vacation sounds like fun - wish i could see the pics!! glad your exams are over, supergenious!! |
| 20th January 2009 Grampy | Great Trip - From: Mariazell How do sailors swear???????not like Marines... |
| 19th January 2009 kristy | - From: Mariazell Not stalking...just very interested in what my favorite oldest nephew is up to! More exciting than what's going on here! |
| 19th January 2009 Nanny | Welcome Back - From: Mariazell Hey, Good to hear that you are back blogging........missed you! Think I would have stayed at the lodge and waited for you all to return while sipping a Schiwasser.............. Lots of snow here....... Sounds like a great time. Love, Nanny |
| 19th January 2009 Mom | - From: Mariazell Kristy must be stalking your blog.....as i guess I am too but I figured you had updated afte we talked yesterday! Please don't break any bones!!!!!! The picture of the boys.....all noses.....still cute though! |
| 19th January 2009 kristy | - From: Mariazell Soo much fun! I'm so jealous - I haven't skied in forever! The sledding at night sounds like a blast! xok |
| 10th January 2009 Nanny | Hardrock - From: Italia Hey, I remember when we were in Asia and discovered Hard Rock. Thought we had died and gone to Heaven with a great Hamburg and french fries............ Singapore, Hong Kong, etc. and the Elvis clothes and car............now thats our culture!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! |
| 9th January 2009 tricia | - From: Italia I just knew you and Mark would hit it off. He's a great guy. Sounds like you are dragging my energetic Julie every where. She needs some culture so keep it up. Though I must object to Hard Rock not once but twice. Geez. My house is clean, your room will be a mess, better you than me. Enjoy, keep her entertained. Love Tricia |
| 8th January 2009 Mom | - From: Italia BlackJack and I enjoyed your pictures. Can't believe you ate octopus!!!! |
| 8th January 2009 kristy | - From: Italia WOW! You should be marking specific photos so you can make one of those coffee table photo books from online. Now that was a brilliantly stated comment! |
| 8th January 2009 Nanny | Italy - From: Italia Wow....sounds like the trip of a lifetime. So glad Julie is sharing all this with you. I kind of agree with Regina..........the chaiotic lifestyle of the Italians is what is so unique . Naples sounds like a great place to visit. By now all the "Inmates" must be back so Julie will definately get a taste of what student life is like in a foreign land.......I envy her that she is meeting all of your friends.........but probably not any different than at URI. Hugs to you both, Nanny |
| 8th January 2009 Hillary | gelosa - From: Italia sono piu gelosa che io posso dire. mozzarella di bufala! gelato! i polpi! mi piacevano i graffiti. una cosa - dovreste andati a capri (italiano e' corretto?). allora...ciao. (n.b. - ho avuto bisogno del mio dizionario per scrivere questo - che peccato.) |
| 8th January 2009 regina | - From: Italia those photos were amazing! you need to go work for National Geographic! Loved hearing about your Italian travels...nothing wrong with a bit of dirt and chaos... that is where the creative soul blossoms! Good luck on the exams and all my best to Julie in her European travels! |
| 5th January 2009 kristy | - From: LÁSKA I am craving a little European blog! Can't wait to hear and see all about Italy! |
| 28th December 2008 kristy | - From: LÁSKA WOW! What a great Christmas break! It sounds like Libor's family is so nice! I'm glad they invited you back for Easter - I still have time to refund my plane ticket to come celebrate with you! Thank them for saving me the money! We were excited to come north for a white Christmas. But then it rained! Oh well! I was glad to see on your itinerary that Julie would be put on the plane and picked up directly off the plane by you! Don't let her out of your sight or the world may never see Julie Barber again! Not so much with directions!! :) Kidding, Julie! I hope you two have a blast! Send the kids a post card! Noel is so into the different countries you've been travelling to! xoxok |
| 27th December 2008 Grampy | none - From: LÁSKA It sounds as if you really had a great time and totally got in to the real world of the CR......a fantastic report of your experiences....it will stay with you always......keep up with the next chapter....Grampy |
| 27th December 2008 Nanny | Life is Good!!!!!!!!!!!! - From: LÁSKA Wow. What a great holiday and here we all were worried that you would be missing us........huh!!!!!!!!!!! Now is Libor's Grandfather really only 60?????? Or does he just look 60. How nice you have been invited back...........safe travels to Italy and have fun with Julie. Happy New Year. Love ya Nanny |
| 18th December 2008 regina | - From: Payback is Sweet you clearly have too much time on your hands....get thyself to the czech republic. It doesnt sound like you received the package. |
| 16th December 2008 MooseIsLoose | - From: Payback is Sweet My inspiration |
| 16th December 2008 Hillary | jim: dwight :: matthew: libor - From: Payback is Sweet did you know that jim did this to dwight on the office last week? |
| 15th December 2008 Nanny | - From: The First Wave Begins... Hey, I agree with Hillary go to Spain, or Belgium to see the Chamberlains or London to see the Richies . The map was fantastic........now it is really easy to track you!!!!!!!!!!!! |
| 13th December 2008 Hillary | don't come back here - From: The First Wave Begins... go to spain! obviously. |
| 11th December 2008 kristy | - From: The Beautiful Italian City of...Salzburg? Noel gave her presentation on Krampusse at school today. Photo of one scary monster is hanging on the wall in the hall at school. A little boy asked me if it was true that if you're naughty in Austria those monsters come and kill you? Apparently some of the facts got lost in translation!!! |
| 11th December 2008 Barbara | - From: The Beautiful Italian City of...Salzburg? Absolutely LOVED the pictures. I agree with you Matthew, the fortress was awesome!!! My favorite part of the picture show. |
| 10th December 2008 kristy | - From: The Beautiful Italian City of...Salzburg? Love weiner snitzel (sp)! Do not love Krampusse! And my kids were surprised with a note from Santa with COAL! I should order a Krampus for them!! |
| 10th December 2008 regina | - From: The Beautiful Italian City of...Salzburg? omg! I would have dropped some "fruit in my looms" if I had been Martyna with that Krampusse(sp?). I think that's called sexual assault! |
| 9th December 2008 MooseIsLoose | - From: Salzburg is Knocking! One of those was supposed to be Banks |
| 9th December 2008 julie | - From: Salzburg is Knocking! clearly you think about me too much because you wrote my name twice when mentioning who doesn't get to see the clock tower |
| 6th December 2008 Hillary | Adverbs - From: Salzburg is Knocking! hey buddy - gotta watch those verbs/adverbs/nouns. i know you don't get to use english much now, but "on the eve of my department"? haha. thanks for referring to me; you know i love that. and the borat quote made me laugh out loud (good thing i wasn't reading at work! (for once)) |
| 6th December 2008 kristy | - From: Salzburg is Knocking! BON VOYAGE! MERRY CHRISTMAS, ALTHOUGH I'M SURE YOU'LL BE BLOGGING FROM YOUR TRAVELS! XO K |
| 5th December 2008 regina | - From: Poopsie and Rosepetals Brighten Up Austria! All I can keep humming is "oh Tannenbaum" as I look at your little christmas tree. Your mom and I sent you off some treats yesterday and I tried to be a bit more vague on the customs form...keep your eye out for it. They said it would take about 8 business days. |
| 4th December 2008 kristy | - From: Poopsie and Rosepetals Brighten Up Austria! what a lucky grandson! Enjoy your tree - ours won't stay lit - keeps blowing a fuse. Love old houses!! xok |
| 4th December 2008 nanbo | just following orders - From: Poopsie and Rosepetals Brighten Up Austria! Hey, Grandpi was just following the post mistress' instructions!!!!! Glad it arrived. I had wanted to fill the box with candy M&M's but she said no to that ............no food to be sent to Austria. Merry Christmas. Love, Nanny |
| 2nd December 2008 regina | - From: Crank up the Winter, Crank up the Salsa, Crank up the...Monsters? yikes! I'm gonna have nightmares. With all that snow your "handshoes" must be getting a lot of use! |
| 1st December 2008 nambo | advent - From: Crank up the Winter, Crank up the Salsa, Crank up the...Monsters? The old cultures really survive......ever get the comments on Gras? we mailed?.....enjoying your fun along with you...... G |
| 1st December 2008 kristy | - From: Crank up the Winter, Crank up the Salsa, Crank up the...Monsters? Wow! That sounds so awesome! I love the pictures! Looks so Christmas-y! Your dream land! The whole monster thing sounds scary - I even got a twinge of nerves reading it! I know, that's just me! Once again, I sound like a broken record, but I am SOO happy that you are having such an amazing experience! Good job on trying goulash - and eggs! We pulled out the x-mas decorations today and set up out dickens village complete with snow! The only we'll see here I'm afraid! xok |
| 30th November 2008 Barbara | - From: Crank up the Winter, Crank up the Salsa, Crank up the...Monsters? Awesome pictures, Matthew. And kids here cry when they sit on Santa's lap. Gives new meaning to the term scary. |
| 30th November 2008 Mom | - From: Crank up the Winter, Crank up the Salsa, Crank up the...Monsters? Wow! Scary......monsters!!!!! Glad you took the lift down! |
| 29th November 2008 Barbara | - From: Thanksgiving Austrian Style You made Ann Marie very happy when she heard you were going to visit the Christmas markets in Vienna. Looks like you are expanding everyones horizons. |
| 28th November 2008 Mom | - From: Thanksgiving Austrian Style That was fun seeing you and Libor last night. I miss your purty face!!!! Kind did feel a bit American Pieish....That is what you were missing last night..apple pie! |
| 28th November 2008 kristy | - From: Thanksgiving Austrian Style you know we would totally break out in the hills are alive! At least Regina and I would - your mom would be too cool!! So...no, it was just the 5 livis and lucy here yesterday all sitting by the phone waiting to hear from you! Actually, Chase, noel and I did the turkey trot. A 2 mile (lots of looping) trot which I had Chase on my shoulders fro 1 mile of! Needless to say, I can barely move! So, David has headed off to RI and I am lame with a heating pad trying to make festive leftover dishes! Love the snow!! xok |
| 28th November 2008 MooseIsLoose | - From: Might Just Die From Cuteness Haha I was going to call but figured you were busy. Were you parents, etc., in Virginia? I don't mind bothering everyone but I figured if your side was down there I wouldn't annoy you all |
| 28th November 2008 kristy | - From: Might Just Die From Cuteness Guess we don't rate for a call on turkey day! I heard everyone was thrilled to chat "face to face"! Enjoy your Christmas post card land! miss you! xok |
| 27th November 2008 Peter | Happy Thanksgiving - From: Might Just Die From Cuteness WILL MISS NOT SEEING YOU TODAY AND TALKING TURKEY WITH YOU. OOps. There thats better. Glad all is well but I haven't had time to catch up on your blogs so I'll do that over the weekend and reply as necessary. we begin the great turkey trek to the "MasterBaster" in about 30 min and Ann's having a fit I'm on the computer. Oh well. different priorities. Weidersehn. |
| 27th November 2008 Mom | - From: Might Just Die From Cuteness Happy Thanksgiving! Miss you! |
| 26th November 2008 kristy | - From: Might Just Die From Cuteness You're a rock star wherever you go - at least with the 7 year old crowd! xoxok |
| 26th November 2008 Mom | - From: Might Just Die From Cuteness Does Julie have to learn how to Salsa? Oh wait...knowing Julie she probably already knows! |
| 25th November 2008 kristy | - From: Weihnachtszeit in Österreich So did you actually burst out singing or was it all in your head? I want a picture of you spreading your arms out while you dance in the mountains! The town sounds so beautiful at Christmas. And here in Irvington, Christmas started the day after Halloween! It's all Christmas music all the time! And I think I live in the right place, because the street lights are already decorated AND Santa is the minister at the church around the corner! So we're all over it! Good luck on your exam - for your answer about why you're there, just start singing! I didn't realize Julie was going to visit! That will be great! Have her send a postcard to the kids! Take care - we'll think of you on Thanksgiving - try to keep your undies dry! xoxok |
| 24th November 2008 Hillary | Wet Undies - From: Weihnachtszeit in Österreich That was a nice image of your wet undies (and Libor's ;) but don't tell him I said that)! Just joking.... Anyway, I had to check with Rachel on the inside joke I was supposed to know - she explained it to me, so we're good now. |
| 21st November 2008 Barbara | - From: [Insert Clever Title Here] I got a good laugh out of the stuffed peppers, Matthew. I could picture all the little Italian grandmothers here in town fainting to learn that there was fish in the mixture. Ask your friend what else was in the mixture, unless you would rather not know. I'm curious if your Italian teacher knows anyone in town. Gives new meaning to the phrase "It's a small world." |
| 20th November 2008 Nanbo | The Kochmeisters - From: [Insert Clever Title Here] I think all you Kochmeisters shoud send an email to Emeril for an episode on International cooking...........what handsome dudes you all are........anyway bless the French that he got the better of you and served you fish............ see just another way of experiencing the international life!!!!!!!!!!!! How did your Italian Prof know about Westerly????????? that would have been interesting....anyway one of my tennis buddies told me the other day her husband taught at your university in Graz...........they are both German and came here about 27 years ago when he took a professorship at the Coast Guard Academy so see..........how easy it is to connect when one travels.....love, Nanny |
| 18th November 2008 kristy | - From: Officially Austrian Tres bien! There are worse things to turn into... |
| 18th November 2008 MooseIsLoose | - From: Officially Austrian Haha no, I'd rather not get anything, why waste the money on me. I keep adding it because I keep finding things wrong with it. Somebody tells me one thing, but there's on little bit wrong with it, so then somebody tells me another thing and I correct one part but another part is wrong. I think that one is finally right. Plus, I forget if/when I've told you guys it, so it's pretty much just me turning into you with the whole "memory" thing. |
| 18th November 2008 kristy | - From: Officially Austrian OK, you keep reminding us of your correct address - I guess I should send you something! Is there anything that you would like to have sent? xok |
| 17th November 2008 MooseIsLoose | - From: Gott Sei Dank, Es Freitag Ist [TGIF] Yea, they have that equivalent and there's also Matthias, but I really can't answer why it's so hard. I think it might be the location of the w and the th and I don't really know haha I know in my last name, at least, it's the number of e's that throw them off. Of course you would thrive upon being referred to as the queen. Did you also have people calling you Sua maestà? haha |
| 16th November 2008 regina | Matthaus - From: Gott Sei Dank, Es Freitag Ist [TGIF] What's the big issue with your name...I always thought the german equivalent was Matthaus...arent they familiar with that. Guess it cant be as easy as going to Italy with the name "Regina" and have everyone calling me "queen" all day! |
| 16th November 2008 Nanny | - From: Gott Sei Dank, Es Freitag Ist [TGIF] tis their loss that you are no longer their teacher!!!!!!!!!!!!! Can't say I blame you though.......way too hard. So do you take any exams for these latin courses and those on ancient Egypt??????????? Tis really great that you are thinking in Austrian German for all your conversations........that is a good sign..........but never loose fact that you are still an American......don't ever forget that............... Do I have your new address??/ wanted to send you an article by post. Miss ya, Your nanny |
| 15th November 2008 MooseIsLoose | - From: Gott Sei Dank, Es Freitag Ist [TGIF] They would be Frankfurters in fact haha Austria, like all the Germanic countries, runs on meat, and the most predominant form is different types of sausages, and there're always people everywhere eating Frankfurters [just without the s in German]. In fact, fun little German lesson. To say, "it doesn't matter to me" in Germany, you'd say, "Es ist mir egal," [it's equal to me]. In Austria, you say, "Es ist mir Würst," it's sausage to me. How 'bout them Äpfel? |
| 14th November 2008 kristy | - From: Gott Sei Dank, Es Freitag Ist [TGIF] Doe a deer... Aren't you actually eating weiners or frankfurters? Try to branch out a little amigo! xok |
| 13th November 2008 kristy | - From: I'm Sorry, I'm Erasmus, I Don't Do the "School" Thing I'm glad to see you are finally having some work to do! How is the "teaching" going. Can you do work on the commute to and from? It seems like the money would be worth it. OK, probably going to get laughed at for this - at least by some... what does Erasmus stand for?

| 8th November 2008 MooseIsLoose | - From: And So Europe Sighs with Relief Haha, I had a big debate in my head about I could care less vs. I couldn't care less, and I couldn't figure out which one it was. Oh well. Forgetting my English! |
| 8th November 2008 Peter | - From: And So Europe Sighs with Relief WHAT!!! Obama was elected ? I don't read the Sun anymore so I guess I'm behind the 8 ball. Actually, it's " I couldn't care less " . Sorry, just had to set you right. Keep smiling. It makes people wonder what you're up to. Peter |

| 3rd November 2008 MooseIsLoose | - From: A Whirlwind of Days I prefer to think it's more of a L'auberge Espagnole type deal. Two Spanish [though really one Basque one Catalan], two Frenchies, a Czech, and an American, all under the same roof... |

| 10th October 2008 Hillary | armpits - From: Wait, This ISN'T a Foreign Language Class?! They knock on the desks because if they raised their hands, they'd stink up the surrounding area!!!!! Tip: In Bologna, every Wednesday night was Erasmus night at all of the pubs; Erasmus (and American) students got discounts on beers. You should look into that. Also, a good way to meet other Americans/Canadians. |
| 9th October 2008 Meglocks | - From: Just Keeps Getting Better just so you won't forget what it's like to be around me: your title to this entry makes me think of a beatles song that i'm singing now. (getting better all the time...!) but also, good entry. it makes your end of the day babble make more sense. ha. |
| 9th October 2008 nanbo | Dancing with the star - From: Just Keeps Getting Better Ah shucks I thought we might see you on Dancing with The Stars Austrian style if you got into the dance class...........how cool is that to have these girls help you with volleyball......Go Matthew. Love ya |
| 8th October 2008 Meglocks | i mostly just want to comment - From: Super Tuesday for the sole purpose of commenting, rather that writing my paper but... hahaha yogi. |
| 7th October 2008 nanbo | bummer - From: Super Tuesday Too bad about the class.....no one notifies you by email or what ever.............. such a waste. Your roommate sure sounds like a dud...........name is appropriate for him. Maybe the girls think you are cuddly like a bear (yogi) |
| 7th October 2008 MooseIsLoose | - From: Super Tuesday Absolutely no idea. I asked if it meant something in "Australian," and I even looked online at an Australian dictionary, but both sources said nope. They apparently just think I'm Yogi. I don't know whether to be flattered or offended. Duuuuuh, which way did 'ee go, which did 'ee go? Heeeeeeeey Baboo! |
| 7th October 2008 regina | - From: Super Tuesday why yogi? |
| 7th October 2008 kristy | - From: Ohhh Back to School... poor you! back to the grind! class sounds interesting though. makes me queasy just imagining a 15 page paper in english let alone auf Deutsch! the weather here is fabulous - kids are outside all the time which is great. and lucy is able to hang with us outside with her shocker collar working well! call again! :)K |
| 6th October 2008 Mom | - From: Ohhh Back to School... Good luck tomorrow and tell Grampi not to spell Grampi with a Y! Doesn't he know how to spell????? Anyway, I am sure you will let me know! Have fun! |
| 6th October 2008 kristy | - From: Wir Regieren! Die S-K Sturm! I am exhausted reading about your day! Amazing! I bet the castle was so cool (not literally) at night! I think you are so lucky to have connected with such great people - that would be awesome to live and work abroad for the summer - when do you get out of school? Maybe you could work there for a while but come home before we go back to VA - Katmando would miss you too much! Good luck with dinner! xok |
| 5th October 2008 nambo | your latest - From: Wir Regieren! Die S-K Sturm! That sounds like a lot of fun faking out the Spanish kids. Often wish I understood Chinese, etc...... football is really big outside of North America......chocolate sounds good......classes must be starting soon.....really enjoy your tales. Grampy |
| 4th October 2008 kristy | - From: Es Regnet, Es Schuettet, Der Alte Schnarcht Wow, I hope you chose the candlelit tours of the castle! Won't there be other soccer games? I think it's funny you are going to teach them football - too ad Chia's not there!!! I'm so jealous of the chocolate festival - that sounds delicious!! Or as the kids would say - delicioso! Or something like that! We cultured ourselves yesterday - maybe not as fascinating as European history but...we went to Williamsburg with Andrew & Susan and the kids. Great to see them! The kids were very impressed - Noel wants to be a colonial girl for halloween. Well she fluctuates when kat starts talking about being a mermaid princess! Anyway - so thrilled you are taking so much in - stay away from Chi-Chis though! Miss you! xok |
| 1st October 2008 MooseIsLoose | - From: Lazy Days in the Eastern Kingdom My bad, I meant peacocks! |

| 1st October 2008 kristy | - From: Budapes[h]t Hey~ Chase and I have been up for a LONG time so we just looked at ALL of your pictures and I think you'd better start to eat as much as you can because with all the walking (and photograhing) you are going to waste away to nothing! Great pictures though! Try to get some more people shots - friends and random foreigners. A castle is a castle right? :) Kidding! xok |
| 30th September 2008 nanbo | Awesome - From: Budapes[h]t I am convinced you should apply for a job with the "Lonely Planet" Travel Guide!!!!!!!!!! You make me really laugh. Wow, the Danube is awesome as are all the pics. Cool Castle and Parlament . Pest looked like a great city. Now Matthew we must do something about your eating. The kabobs you would most likely like...grilled meat so you can't go wrong....... but BK and McD. Ouch!!!!!!! Guess I really enjoy this because traveling is truly all about new adventures. Love ya, Nanny |
| 30th September 2008 MooseIsLoose | Budapes[h]t - From: Budapes[h]t No no no, NO pictures of the thermal baths. None. Ja, VERBOTEN. SEHR SEHR VERBOTEN. |

| 24th September 2008 nanbo | crazy hairdo - From: A True Linguistic Adventure Hey Matthew, It doesn't look that bad now!!!!!!!!!!!! Look at the good side you won't need another for at least a couple of months. I was laughing so hard at you description..........bet the hairdresser was the hit for the day with the stories she would tell. Great reading. Did I tell you we got your card from Graz...........took only 4 days. The Lafferty's just returned from Croatia and traveled about 10 miles from you.................Good luck in your oral exam. Love ya, Nanny |
| 24th September 2008 Regina | - From: A True Linguistic Adventure Not bad Matthew...I like the new hairdoo...it's better than the asymetrical cut I got in 1983 in Florence...you know, really short on one side and long and straight on the other...not a good look for Regina! |
| 23rd September 2008 Mom | - From: A True Linguistic Adventure Try smiling! It looks like a mug shot...not bad though! |
| 23rd September 2008 nambo | travels - From: Vienna Vienna Vienna great trip.....look forward to next adventure....64 meters is about 210 feet (one meter = 39+inches Keep on having an adventure' Grampy |

| 21st September 2008 Alissa | ...the magic flute? - From: Vienna Waits For You... Urgh, so I hate Mozart, pretty much as a blanket statement. My German Grandparents decided to up our cultural education by taking us to some modern opera of Die Zauberfloete. It was terrifying: The magic flute was a giant penis and the queen of the night ripped her boobs off and spent the rest of the aria bleeding. So I doubly hate the magic flute. And that stupid Papageno song (der Vogelfaenger bin ich ja, stehts lustig, heisa-hopsasa) gets stuck in my head periodically. Lucky me. Hope Wien was gut! |
| 20th September 2008 kristylivingston13@yahoo.com | - From: Vienna Waits For You... So bummed to have missed your call but it was GREAT to hear your voice! The kids have listened to it a couple of times! Sounds like you're off for an interesting weekend - who would've thunk it - Matthew Greene is going to the Opera! Don't be fooled by Regina, I won't be there, so when the audience gets up to leave, it really is over!! |
| 19th September 2008 nambo | none - From: Vienna Waits For You... Glad we were able to use skype the other day......vienna should be interesting......try the white sausage, its great....sub-titles should be different at an opera.....have fun |
| 19th September 2008 regina | - From: Vienna Waits For You... great chatting with you today...have a blast in Vienna! As far as the opera goes...it aint over till the fat lady sings! |
| 17th September 2008 regina | pinky toenail - From: Lazy Day loved the toenail comment! Going to ponder it's use for the rest of the day. Hope you get some better silverware to help savor your gastronomic creations! |
| 17th September 2008 Regina | - From: Yesterday's Entry Your mother has clearly pampered you...Charlie can make spaghetti and he's only 12! |
| 16th September 2008 Mom | Next mashed potatos - From: Yesterday's Entry You are ahead of Kristy at the same age in the cooking department! Maybe she can pass on how to make mashed potatos to you!! LOL!!!!!! |
| 14th September 2008 kristylivingston13@yahoo.com | - From: Aufsteirern in Graz I like the hat, George! I think those fancy yummy snacks you love are called... APPLE JELLY DONUTS!!!!!!!!!! |
| 14th September 2008 Peter | - From: Aufsteirern in Graz Well, it's a good thing we didn't have pig in Nova Scotia, you would have had a different moniker. Glad you tried it. John Hall, Charlie Kitchen & I used to roast pigs for the Choir's Easter feast. Stephen just did one at camp for a wedding. Again, what a treat and experience this all must before you. Keep up the blogs. I look forward to the daily dose. |
| 13th September 2008 Peter | - From: BEST DAY YET! I am so envious of you. What a great opportunity and learning experience. Plus all the fun of doing it all. Glad all is well and keep up the blogs. My eastern european blood is proud! My Italian blood wants soupy, wine and cheese |

| 12th September 2008 nanny | - From: 'Cause of course Laundry Can't Be Easy so have you conquored it yet |
| 12th September 2008 Peter | - From: Believe What You've Heard About Eastern Europe 28 & easy on the eyes, huh? What's her name, Frau Robinsohn? |
| 12th September 2008 kristy | - From: 'Cause of course Laundry Can't Be Easy I'm glad your mother taught you how to do laundry! Maybe when you grow up you can work at an international school. Then we could visit you instead of you visiting us in VA! |
| 11th September 2008 Nanny | washing machine - From: 'Cause of course Laundry Can't Be Easy How funny is that picture of you opening the washer and the water pouring out!!!!!!!!!!!! Hope the jet lag is over for you.... |

Have fun tonight - sounds like you are quite the social man! And...I'm all about the fake laugh! xok |
