After two years and one month in Germany, Karl and I are moving back the the US at the end of them moth.
We had hoped to make our home here, which started out as a temporary 6 month assignment for his job, into a permanent home, but things haven't worked out as we hoped. And now we're returning.
The decision has made us sad because this is so much our Home. This place has affected us in many ways for the better. There is so much we are going to miss about living in Germany. One of which is the view out my window of the Black Forest. Every day we've lived here I've been amazed that I'm so lucky. Often those thoughts come when I look out our bedroom window at the beautiful green forested mountains with its castle ruins.
I've been trying to soak in that view as much as possible this past week since we've learned we're going to be returning to the States at the end of the month. Unfortunately, it's been a rainy and foggy week and there hasn't been much to see out my window...

It looks beautiful. Good luck with your move.
wow! what an absolutely stunning view that is! Germany sounds like an amazing place. You're lucky to have lived there as long as you have and here's an early "welcome back!" to the states! My parents used to live in Germany and my older brother was born there. Too bad they didn't stay there long enough for me to have enjoyed it a bit!
Today I learned about the sad news.. that you are leaving Germany :( I wish you all the best and perhaps we could stay in contact by email.
