Astrid and I have been together through Dominicanismo, homelessness, vagabondedness and now that we are both firmly located in the city where mental angst was born (and is continually fostered), a new title: Adventures in Schluchtenscheißerland.
For the uninitiated:
Schluch-ten-scheiß-er: 1) n. He who shits in valleys or gorges
2) n. An uneducated, working-class German speaker, especially a politicly reactionary one from a rural Area. A redneck, yokel or hick.
3) n. An offense slur to describe an Austrian.
Let the new adventure begin...
