Ah! So in which one is the Frankfurt Book Fair held? My last boss used to go to that each year.
Where are you from.

It's in Frankfurt/Main. The other book fair is in Leipzig which is - in the east of our re-untited country.

Shirps Posted May 16, 2005
for the explanations - never realised there were (old times) two: one in the East & one in the West. Nor 2 bookfairs - that makes sense though as I presume they were counted as 2 different countries.
Anyhow, thanks again - back to the words, eh?

Hello all,
I am also from Germany and also from near Frankfurt (Main). Although I studied in another city for the last year and move to yet another soon (still not too far away, though).

*waves to tjeika* So, what do you mean: 'near' Frankfurt ? Darmstadt, Mainz, Heidelberg, Marburg, Gießen ?
Where are you from.
tjeika Posted May 18, 2005
Well, my parents live in Taunusstein (don't worry, if you don't know it, that is normal ) But i used to study in Mainz. Do you live in Frankfurt itself?
