I
think I'll be eternally grateful to the guy in the commissary queue in
Mississippi who heard we were moving to Germany and told me, "You know where you should live? Queidersbach."
OK, I've been wondering this since you moved there... how on earth do you say it? I always read it as, "Key-SEED-er-bark", and if my German is half as good as I think it is (which it isn't), I'm pretty sure that's wrong.
I'm a letterpress printer, a designer, a former journalist, an Australian living in America. I dream of sharing a villa in Italy with my antique letterpress (OKAY, my family can come too) and having a studio as big as a barn.
