The Karilogue blog…

Welcome to Karilogue.com, where the goal is to both entertain and inform. Kari tackles her experiences with a mix of her sense of adventure and her sense of dread; she’s always sure that the current adventure will be the death of her.  Also, she’s pissed off about social inequities, so you’ll find that here, too.

  1. Hi Kar,

    Congratulations on you blog!
    My name is Eve and I am the founder of a new journalistic project about multicultural community of Germany. I was wondering if you are interested in sharing your experiences with me? Would you find some time to reply to a few questions?

    Just to give a better idea of the project and how your possible story will look like, check out our website: http://www.multicoolty.com

    Thank you in advance!

  2. I just came across your blog and wanted to thank you for taking the time to share these stories. I am a DoD Civ (with a wife and 2 young girls) and may soon have orders to your AO. Thanks again and keep up the good work!

    1. Justin, Thanks for reading. If you do head this way, I’d suggest checking out GermanyJa!, a site I sometimes contribute to. Although they tout themselves a military pcs-geared site, most posts are relevant to civilians. They have a section (I think it’s called “Aha!”) dedicated to those things they want to prevent you from fretting over for a year before figuring it out. Some of what I’m writing for them is about getting things done in town–not “on base”. More helpful for civilians. Hope you head out this way. It’s so great for kids. Definitely feel free to contact me again if you do, and I’ll communicate with you offline.

      1. Kari-

        It has taken much longer than expected, but at this point, we are just waiting on PCS orders. We will have a much better idea of what we are up against once we see the orders, but I think our biggest mystery so far is to figure out where to look for a place to live and I think that will be largely dependent on school options for the kids. Do you have any insight as to how you went about that? (please feel free to respond offline).

        Thanks!

      2. Justin, please email me at ingermanyabroad@gmail.com – I can’t seem to find a way to respond offline and am not a technical genius.

        Meanwhile, here is part one of an article I wrote for Germany, Ja! about making decisions about German Kindergarten/school –

        http://germanyja.com/2014/03/german-kindergarten-child.html

        There’s a link to part two re: the enrollment process. Coming soon is one about elementary school (as well as one about fostering your child’s natural German acquisition once they arrive). Both Kindergarten articles do apply to elementary school aged children in some ways, so I’d check them out.

        It’s hard to make any guesses about your living situation until you’re on the ground. It’s definitely the most stressful part, with children. Send me a note and we’ll chat. -Kari

  3. Hi Kari,

    I came across your site and would like to express our interest in publishing some of your posts on our site.

    I am writing from Expatica.com – an online news and information portal for expats. We found several of your posts in line with what we publish for our expat audiences. We were wondering if you would give us permission to promote selected posts on Expatica.com?

    Please feel free to discuss this with me through email. I hope to hear from you!

    Kind regards,
