any german-speaking people that live in atlanta?
hello there,
i am from austria and i live in atlanta for a year now.
i was just wondering, are there any other german-speaking people that live in this area?
even though i just lived there for a year- i got really bad in german, so it would be nice having someone to speak german to.
i am 20 years old and live on dekalb avenue.
thank you

have you been to Barnesley Gardens Resort in Adairsville? It was built by a Bavarian prince from Habsburg lineage and boasts an authentic bavarian style biergarten.. it's also just a really cool place. For a kitschy faux german experience, check out Helen in northeast georgia mountains. I have also been told there is a very authentic German biergarten and restaurant in between Alpharetta and Cumming. I have been meaning to check it out when I am up in that area next.

Guten Tag
Wenn Sie sind im Stadtzentrum das Gebiet von Georgia Technologie oder Oglethorpe in Buckhead versucht. Sie sollten deutsche Klassen dort mit vielen Studenten anschauend haben, Diskussion zu haben. PS: Ich bin rostig

Goethe Institute is a good spot as well as some of the German clubs at the universities around here. I'm sure they would love to have a native speaker jpoin them... and wilkommen.
