Arrival in Katschberg
From nacken, 4 days ago Similar articles
After a not so long drive and some shopping fun in Villach (boohoo, the ‘end of summer’ sale is already over) , we finally arrived at our vacation destination in Austria, the Falkensteiner Cristallo in Katschberg (Kärnten) Nice greeting at the reception and a VERY nice room (lots of sliding doors, you can make it as open or compartmentalized as you want. The LCD TV is on a flip panel, so it can be used either in the main bedroom or the living room, ingenious planning) While Ritsu...

Hating Expats'
From Eyes Wide Oman, 1 weeks ago Similar articles
Yesterday, "anonymous" posted a comment that I found really interesting. It's a follow up to the comment about the joke among expats: Q: What's the difference between and expat and a racist'A: About three weeks...To turn it around, "anonymous" (same one or different') wrote this:"Injustice,stigma and discrimination against expats, which is institutionalised in Oman. Hence, an average expat is "perceived" racist by Omanis in the spirit of blaming expats for every ill of Omani society."I'm not...
Expat or Immigrant, redux
From Mid-Atlantic English, 1 weeks ago Similar articles
Arctic tern, definitely a migrant This post has inspired a renewed interest recently, and I am interested in what other expats/immigrants/migrants think--not just about the post but the comments as well. If you care to take a look... go here: Expat or Immigrant'Unfortunately, this new comments system I am trialling has deleted all the previous comments across this site so only the most recent comments are on show--which is irritating because there were some really good comments about this...

Jakarta Post & Castro
From Indonesia News, 1 weeks ago Similar articles
The Jakarta Post has an unfortunate reputation among conservative expats, and local readers too. One guy, on another site, once referred to it as the Havana Post, and no wonder. Despite Indonesia's narrow escape from red totalitarianism in 1965, we are regaled with regular sob-stories about unrepentant PKI hacks, old now but still virulent in their propagation of communist lies. Sure, the JP does okay with ordinary news, but its inherent pinko bias shines through all too often with its...
Meeting friends in Pattaya
From Funky Doodle Donkey, 1 weeks ago Similar articles
Since we used to live near Pattaya, a beach resort in the Gulf of Thailand, we wanted to meet our friends who where still there. Since most of our friends are expats and like us moving every 4-5 years, most where gone, but a few we still met and that was so much fun!Here in the lobby of our hotel, the Marriott we met Bruce & Judy, we had some drinks in the lobby, while we were hanging out at the pool before and still in our swimming clothes, Bruce & Judy were all dolled up to go after our...
A Sultan and His Mother's Love
From Andy in Oman, 1 weeks ago Similar articles
Sultan Qaboos was very close to his mother. She was one of his main supporters as he was confined to the palace in Salalah in the years before he took power from his father on July 23rd, 1970. The book “A Reformer on the Throne” reports that she would smuggle in copies of “The Times“ to keep him up to date with what was going on in the outside world. I’m not sure if a lot of expats are aware of it but this mosque was built in honor of his mother: It is...

Is that not the coolest title ever' I wish I had thunk of it myself. Dang it. I received an email that those of you expats with children definitely want to keep in mind for next year. It’s a scholarship contest for children living abroad. Unfortunately the deadline has passed for this year but the winners will be announced in early September and I cannot wait to read their entries. But mark your calendars for next year. I am excited to even hear what the theme will be – this...
Moving to Thailand: Steve, Thailand Musings
From Jonny Foreigner, 2 weeks ago Similar articles
It has been a while since I ran a couple of interviews on aspiring expats and their plans to move out to Thailand. I featured Talen and Martin, two very prominent bloggers and after a long delay, mainly, nay, entirely down to me, next up to the plate is Steve from Thailand Musings. So without further ado...here's Steve... You are living in the USA at present but with aspirations of moving to Thailand. What is it that makes you want to move to Thailand' I've been fascinated with...

World No Tobacco Day HA!
US Memorial - Omaha Beach. For those of you in Austria who missed it Monday was World No Tobacco Day. This initiative has not gained much ground here where smoking is very much a part of daily life for all citizens - whether you like it or not. I won't go on my usual rant about this (lie) - even though it makes me very unhappy indeed - but let me say that Vienna was recently rated by Mercer as the number one city in the world for expatriate living. I think the fact that for non-smokers it is...
Real Gelato in Seattle
And by that I mean: quite possibly even better than you could find in Italy. *gasp* “Blasphemy!” you cry. But: no! Ever since we decided to settle here in Washington, we’ve built up a lovely little community of fellow Italian expats. One of them, our friend Marco D’Ambrosio, has taken the brave leap of opening a gelateria and today is the “soft” opening (pun intended). Meaning, free gelato for anyone lucky enough to be passing by, and advance notice for...
He was just not stupid enough!
There is a weird system in Austria that if you declare your religion (on one of the numerous forms you have to fill out to live here) - then the authorities deduct money from your salary and give it to that church.I guess this serves to ensure that only those with some commitment will actually make the declaration and pay the money to the church. Beats the hell out of having to wreak havoc in the community with just what you can get by passing the plate around on Sunday.The Austrian...
