Travel Hell

Mike Arrington just went to Spain and described virtually all my trips to countries where English isn’t the first language (ask me about my first non-trip to Versailles, trying to find a hotel in Paris by driving around the ring road around Paris - say – four or five times before realizing it was a circle, or getting mugged outside the Louvre.)  I hope this isn’t foreshadowing for my trip to Munich on Monday.

Brad!

Most Germans speak English pretty well. So don�t worry. But your post reminds me of a big US start-up setting up their German office. Most important qualification of country head: An American who speaks German ;-) Mike�s and your post are full of clichees :-)

Have fun in Munic and see you in Paris where really everyone refuses to speak English!

Best, Sven
