That picture is from one of the front pages of the Half-life Platinum pack, and the Half-life adrenaline pack.
Yes... there is the possibility of him just living in Austria to go to the University...
But that wouldn't be very fun would it?
And it says he is just visiting... so that might enforce the idea.
Crikey.
That's cool though I guess.
:psyboom:
Would explain why my Doctor looks kinda like Gordon...With the same name.
He applied to Black Mesa by talking on the phone
Oh god this is so late I don't even-
So Gordon first lives in Australia, then moves to somewhere in Nevada to work in an underground lab, then is teleported to some European country.
He's quite the traveler.

Austria, not Australia.
Austria, to New Mexico, to Prague in the Czech Republic.

Damn beat me to it.
Ross Scott makes reference to Gordon being in Austria in one of the Freeman's Mind episodes.
Maybe he doesn't talk because he only knows Austrian while everybody keeps speaking in English.

Please note that it says "Return to US". If you actually read the text underneath you will realise he's there to study.
Squeaken beat me to it :(
HE has a horrible accent. Gosh. thats why he doesn't talk, he's embarrassed.
I don't think he's from Austria.
Remember when Eli says, "MIT graduates are few" or whatever. That means he originally studied in Massachusetts then maybe went to Austria to further his studies. Notice also how later in the letter it says "return to the United States" also even later in that letter is mentions MIT and Dr. Kleiner being his professor.
I'm pretty sure he's American, he doesn't look Austrian. The name Gordon Freeman is not Austrian.
Squeaken and Hufterkruk are with me on this, right?
So, he sounds like the Terminator?
"You don't talk much do you."
"Who is your Daddy, and what does he do?"
"...?"
Actually, according to Eli, Gordon was only working on experiments in Innsbruck. He mentions that in Black Mesa East. What probably means that he maybe IS American, but he decided to go to Austria.
"Visiting Fellow"
Means he's conducting independent research without the need of financial support there and just [b]staying[/b] there.
Combine OverWiki says that Gordon was born in Seatle.

Hes from Seattle, Washington.

Degree in crowbarology?
I wonder if Gordon is related to the sniper.
This is funny because Ross Scott mentioned it in the newest Freeman's Mind and I was all "Austria? What." and then I saw this.
[i]Awesome.[/i]
HOLY JESUS MIND BLOWN. Oh, my god.
What, are you serious?
Innsbruck is in Austria. To be at a university would mean STAYING at the town/city or the university itself.
He was born in the US, moved to Austria, then went back to New Mexio, US
He simply went to college in austria.
Gordon went to M.I.T.
[QUOTE=Treybuchet;18440872]Gordon went to M.I.T.[/QUOTE]
Gordon went to MIT [i]after[/i] Innsbruck.
Or before.
I don't know.
