Ernst from Germany

[ernst]

Hi,

My name is Ernst and I am from Germany. I am 54 years old and had my first pipe with 14.

In the meantime I got quite a collection of more than 100 pipes from German and Scandinavian pipemakers.

I love the US and drove down thevwestcoast this summer frm Seattle to LA.

When I visited tobacco shops there they were kind of strange and more like headshops probably because I did not find the right places.

I love natural flake and plug tobacco and hope that I can meet good pipefriends here.

German has plenty of good tobaccos and maybe we can exchange samples and ideas.
Best

Ernst

We only have a few good tobacco stores here in the Seattle area. Headshops are a lot easier to find.
Welcome to the forum. I'm looking forward to sharing ideas with you.

Well. although my photo shows me in my town greeter uniform I have not spoken much German for almost fifty years when i left Bremerhaven.
I live in a little town in central Missouri which was almost entirely settled by Germans in 1836.

We are a small town of about 200 people during the week and from 5000 to 30,000 om the weekend.

We have two excellant wineries and a very good brewry inside the city limits. On the weekends I meet the trains and answer questions from tourists. I am always smoking one of my old German or Austrian pipes. Pictures are of same street on Tuesday and on Saturday.
