This entry actually starts on Tuesday, November 2nd with a lot of travel. Malev, the Hungarian Airline, is okay. Nothing fancy but then there doesn’t need to be. I made my flight (not as easy as it sounds, I got confused at the gate – there’s a difference between Gate 22 and Gate 22A – and they took me into a special room to make the power cord of my computer wasn’t a bomb) and made it back to Budapest easily enough. I even felt like a native as I was able to help some newly landed folks find their way to their destinations. Continue reading “Geneva”

Heidelberg
Here in Europe, at least in some parts of it including Hungary, this week was fall break. This meant I had a whole week off from work and I was going to take advantage of it. My first stop was Germany.
It’d been a while since I’d been to Heidelberg – almost a year in fact. So I was a bit nervous. I was nervous flying in and nervous on the Lufthansa Bus for the 50 minute ride from Frankfurt…I needn’t have been. Continue reading “Heidelberg”
Amsterdam – City of contradictions…
Overnight trains leave a lot to be desired. In this instance, I got on board at 7pm and wasn’t going to get off again until 10 the next morning. This isn’t necessarily a bad thing except when you’re in a train compartment with five other people and your legs are intertwined it gets hard to sleep. Add in the fact that people are constantly leaving the train and the sun is coming up and someone forgot to draw the blinds and really, not the best night’s sleep.

Across the water…
Arrived safely in Helsinki, Finland. More updatery goodness coming soon, back by popular demand.
Alive and well…
Internet is spotty in the Baltics. I have 4-5 posts ready to go as soon as I get a solid connection but until then, know I am safe and heading to Latvia.
And you know I’m thinking about you…
Special edition blogs…
I don’t know when they’re coming, but expect a couple of special edition blogs – one on my shadow self portraits and one on the different types of bathrooms I’ve encountered over here.
You have fair warning…
Alive and well in Vienna…
For those of you who have been worried, I am alive and well in Vienna. There will be posts aplenty soon. Sorry for any worry.
Just another Munich Monday… (or Wednesday)
Before I get into the day’s events (and finish yesterdays), let me inform you of the new plan and take the time to answer a few reader questions.
First things first – new travel plans! Staying in Munich one extra night and then Friday morning I’m jumping a train for Salzburg, Austria. Continue reading “Just another Munich Monday… (or Wednesday)”
4am in Munich…
Somehow, I have internet in my room and I was just woken up by the sound of thunder…
Secrets…
Been having an interesting experience lately. A couple of girls I’m involved with, emotionally if not romantically, have needed me recently. And each time I’ve been there. And each time I’ve been a secret. Each of these girls has a boy friend and it’s not me. And each of them I’d date but instead I’m just the good friend.
Now, I’m okay with that…to a point. Where I’m having a hard time is that even though I’m there, no one knows what I’m doing. I’m the secret friend. I’m the one who gets denied and asked to leave as soon as the crisis is over. Continue reading “Secrets…”
Hello world!
Okay gang… this is where I’m gonna be posting all about my adventures in Europe. If you want to keep up, here’s the place to do it.
You can comment and give me tips and advice, or you can just passively read and follow along.
Either way, I hope to update here on a fairly regular basis.
