Ready for a laugh?

This email just arrived, minutes after my last post. It's almost hard to believe but I verified the contact information and this is indeed legit. Read on: Hi Holly, My name is (removed for privacy reasons) and I'm a casting assistant at House Hunters International. Someone suggested I check out your blog, Haus Maus, since we're looking to cast in Germany so imagine my surprise when I visit your blog and House Hunters International is mentioned in your most recent post!!! Unfortunately, I noted that you are currently renting otherwise I think you'd be perfect for our show! If you ever decide to buy, please contact us. In the meantime, if you know anyone who has bought property in the past year or so, we'd love it if you could pass along our information. (On a more personal note, I love decor8. I'll definitely be a return visitor). Thanks so much for watching! ----- Can you believe it? So friends, if I ever buy a home or apartment in Germany, I know who I'm contacting! And this leads me to ask... is anyone else buying property in Europe anytime soon because well, I have a contact for YOU!

It the power of the 'interwebs' ;) That is cool that they contacted you. I LOVE that show my DVR is packed w/every European show. Idea, maybe suggest to the producer to start a show on living overseas and the rental market. I know bunches of people who want to live abroad but don't know how. Since they already have the crews and the show it would only take tweeking the concept a tad. Also in this economy buying ANYWHERE is out of the question. I just started reading your blog but I think it is super cute. Keep up the great blogin' -Xica, Silicon Valley-

Ha! They're doing a Dutch version, too, and contacted me, as well. I love watching the show, but I'm not sure I would want to actually be on tv!
