Bitburg Germany !!!

Figured I?d pop in and update date you peeps on our Family?s Newest Adventure !!!

We have moved to Bitburg Germany, My wife accepted a job with the DODEA and will be teaching 7th grade Language Arts and Technology to Air Force Pilots and Diplomats children at Spangdahlem Air Force Base !!!

We move into our new house in Bitburg (Home of Germany?s Oldest Brewery) this week ?

Jennifer and I started this process 25 years ago and then Kids and Life happened, So beginning of 2026 we made the decision to do it again so in February she updated her 25 year old application through the DOD and we were here July 27th !!!



For those that have my number and want to still contact me, We?re required to use WhatsApp for communication ?


So if anyone makes it to Germany, Hit me up !!!

Habe einen tollen Tag !!!

I visited Germany last year and it was amazing! I can only imagine living there full time.

Hopefully, they have some kind of car scene for you to check out and to be a part of.


Congrats on your new adventure, I wish you all the best!! :bigthumb

We?ve delved into the car scene already and it?s Pretty Cool, They?re not big into Drag Racing, But driving our BMW X6 M series Competition SUV at 145mph for almost 25 miles on the Autobahn will get the blood pumping too !!! LOL

It?s Absolutely Beautiful !!!
And living 2 miles from Germany?s oldest brewery is a Bonus !!!

Congrats Aaron, that is freakin rad! Sounds like you landed in a hell of a cool spot too!
My grandparents on my fathers side of the family immigrated here from Germany and I've always wanted to go see the country. Gotta put that on the 5 year plan. ;)

I'd love to hear more about the area you guys are in and how life is there, so keep us posted as you guys get settled in.

WOW it?s been a minute Buddy !!!
It?s still pretty surreal, even though we?re here, It?s only been 8 days yet we?ve gotten a vehicle and just a very very small place to hang our hats LOL, It still hasn?t fully sunk in !!! And still adjusting to the 6 hour ahead time difference.

This area of Germany is Beautiful, Reminds me of West Virginia where I grew up without the Depressing Economy and Meth :lol: :lol: :lol:

As soon as I figure out how to post pics on here I will, But if anyone wants to see our adventures friend me on the bookface or follow my wife and I on instagram (WanderingWidays)

And if anyone is planning a trip hit me up ?

I use Flickr to host my pics with good success

I post them all (or my wife tags me LOL) on Bookface !!!

But I?ll check on Flickr :rockon: :rockon: :rockon:

Have fun Aaron. I've personally never cared for German food, and always preferred a bad British beer over a "good" German beer any day - when I drank - but I do envy your ability to get out on the autobahn though I have cracked past 170mph on I-74 - though not for 25 miles. I have wanted to visit there only for the autobahn and because I have traced my heritage back to Old Germany. Our people crossed the Atlantic and settled first in PA in the 1670's.

I think the Food is Phenomenal !!!
Maybe it’s what dish you had ???

We had the cruise set at 136 today for 55 miles coming back from Koblenz, from getting our son a car also !!!

Unfortunately the BMW is speed limited to 155, but we hit that a few times !!! LOL

I could honestly see us staying for 5-10 years

Hell yea, freekin awesome dude!
And those highway speeds sound like a blast too!

I wanna see pics, I'll give yall a follow on the gram. ;)

Thank you Craig, gonna look into a flickr account so i can share some pics here.
:postpix:

The only thing German Fare I was able to eat without getting an upset stomach (German food that is available locally) is the Frickizee or however you spell it. Brattwerst, Sausage, Brahnzwagger(sp), and soforth just doesnt work for me. I do have to retract my stetement on the beer claim however. There is a German restaurant in Miamitown Ohio that is called Kreimer's Bierhaus. They make awesome steaks and other US dishes as well as quite a few German dishes (family recipes) I have never had a desire to try. That said, they have a family beer made in Germany called Kreimers Dark that is the smoothest drinking beer you ever tasted. When I was a training specialist I used to take classes there on Tuesday nights. They had to try the Kreimers Dark or pay for their own meal. Not once did I have someone switch after they drank the first pint over a year and a half.

Glad you like it there. I know it has to be beautiful with the mountains and architecture. Enjoy man, I am certain you are missed back east here in good ole USA.

I LOVE me some Kreimers Dark !! :drool:
