Comments Encouraged!

Since I'm still new to this, I didn't realize visitors have to subscribe in order to leave comments. But I suppose that's a safeguard to keep random comments from cyber psychos who have nothing better to do. So I apologize for any inconvenience because I really do want your insights.

Yesterday I happened to mention (in a post) that most Germany residences have no counter space in the kitchens, and definitely no closets! Last night I happened to be in a home that had plenty of both! .....seriously.........large built-in closets and even a mud-room type of closet for buckets, vacuum cleaner, brooms and mops, etc. Since many of us convert a smaller spare bedroom into a walk-in closet and have had to invest in wardrobes, I was really surprised to see this exception to the rule.

This is one of the reasons your comments are encouraged. Regardless of the topic, I'm sure there are many people with valuable info that can help others.
