8 hours of train

Vienna is not my city. I know that. But I don´t know why so many people say "it is such a beautiful city" (check out the picture below). Maybe they are talking about how "nice" the city is...and I am talking about the "nett" nice: Es ist so nett dort...nett.... whatever.




I tried it there! God knows I did! But I just dont get it. I dont know why. I guess I keep on trying on.

BUT something pretty funny and nice happened on my way home. Just like a good friend of mine, people seem to enjoy talking to me in trains (what a weird sentence). While I was watching Juno on my Laptop, a little boy and his brother were getting closer carefully, they also wanted to watch it and after a while we were talking. And boy, kids have an intelligence we "grown ups" dont know anymore!! Of all the "wise" words the told me this one is my daily favorite:


"Das Wichtigste gibt´s nicht...es gibt sehr sehr wichtige Dinge, aber das wichtigste...nein sowas gibts nicht."

A 4 year old kid told me something really really true! How we came to that point? He looked at the yellow note on my laptop keys and asked what it is. I said: i put the most important things there. He did not understand it!
