Colette and David (formerly RamblerH) are Texans who took their first trip to Germany in Oct ‘98 and are now seasoned travelers having completed other trips since. They recently lived in Singapore for a year which only increased their appetites for future travels overseas. Upon returning to the States David retired and Colette resumed her position at a large law firm in Houston. They fell in love with Germany on their first trip in ‘98 and plan to return as often as possible. David is a Harley Davidson fanatic, and they hope one day to rent a Harley in Germany and “hog-it” around Germany’s countryside. Colette continues to struggle with German lessons now and then, and says that Germany has become her obsession. (We all know the feeling - don't we...)

Enjoys German language courses, cooking German dishes, travel and anything related to the German culture.
