So much stuff not enough room....

So I got an interesting e-mail in my junk e-mail box:
if i might to intoduce myself - my name is Alexander Köhler, student of social- and cultural anthropology at the university of vienna. A few days ago i was informed by helga , that you would give us the honour to visit our city for some weeks in the course of the YPI, before you´d move on to paris. if i am allowed, i´d like to ask you for some further information concerning your project etc.; i would really be pleased, hear from you, greetings, alexander

Not quite sure what to respond, as I don't really know the nature of my project yet. Right now I am focusing on what to pack, and figuring out what to do with my stuff. Plus unless I want to pay like $175 I can only bring two suitcases, and a carry on. AS IF! I am going to Europe for five months, I need a variety of clothes, and my Shopaholic and Harry Potter books, maybe my Helen Fielding books.I need my books, because if I can't watch Gilmore Girls, I need something to do at night,when I get home from exploring. It's a source of stress in itself. All the things I need to bring in limited space. Not to mention shoes take up alot of space, but I think I have decided on which four pairs to bring. Maybe 5. I want to bring my cd's and a photo album. The cd's will be taken out of their cases though, and put in a wallet to save space. And the photo album will be a small one. I know the trick for clothing is to pack versitial items, that can make tons of out fits... and I don't need 5 black shirts maybe 1 or 2. I am not quite at that stage, I will start packing soon, so I am starting to think about it. I bought a really great pair of pants yesterday that can be worn with many things.
