planning exploring
So I have decided on a definate trip for when I am in Paris. I was doing some reading about the European Rail system at this cool travel bookstore called Novacks- if you are in London, I recommend it- and have sorta began forming a trip. I found out that Barcelona, Spain is only 8 1/2 hours away, so I will like be able to leave on a Friday night, arrive early saturday morning, and then I can come back sunday night. I am still working on making it to Athens from Vienna. I will try and go to Milan from Vienna, its only like 7 hrs. I am getting excited at the prospect of travelling. I want to go to Geneva, Barcelona, Milan, Rome, Athens, St. Petersburg or Moscow, Madrid and London. My friend Anne showed me this website all about last minute trips where you can sometimes even get flights and accomodations for around 100euros, probably more, so we'll see where I get to go. This is the best time to travel there, because I can take advantage of the cheap youth prices. Really not liking the fact the Frommer's guide book has changed from Europe from $70/day to $85/day. I read somewhere that in Vienna it's 3 euros for a can of coke, which is about $4.95 Cdn!Apparently wine is cheap there, cheaper than water. Upon my return to Canada: Kristin= Lush. The enormity of this whole thing is starting to hit me. OH MY GOD I AM MOVING TO EUROPE! It's feeling realer now that I have begun to slowly start organizing to pack. I think I may try to find a job in London, England at the end of May.Gosh this has been a really heavy blog posting day, you'd think I am writing a novel! Who knows maybe I will publish this one day!
