1. I am in love with this. Must find partners in crime for such an adventure.

Staring at this and playing Prospekts March by Coldplay at a loud volume just feels right.

  3. Minor Successes Make Me Go (!)

    I said a lot of things before coming to Europe. I also daydreamed of many possibilities, but once I got here the follow through was hit and miss.

    So far I’ve traveled a bit, but not to the places I necessarily thought I would. I’ve taken pictures, but not so much with the Minolta that I brought with me. The Minolta issue is only a result of the weather here that has only improved within the past month and a half. You’d be surprised what Spring has done to the mood here… and the general splendor of everything. Buildings aren’t so bleak and people are slightly more tolerable.

    I cannot say I’ve been the best employee today for various reasons, but tomorrow marks the start of our Easter holiday and I took the initiative to start my celebration today. :)

    That is to say… Whit finally got her act together and has two must-have trips mostly accounted for. With the exception of Parisian housing, I’m going to Paris in June and London in May. My excitement is a 10 on a scale of 1-10. I’m. Pumped.

    What really made me smile, though, was the fact that I paid very little for these train tickets.

    London: 70€ RT

    Paris: 50€ RT

    Oh yeah, and Mr. Minolta is going to get some great shots in… plus I have to use up all the film I have or else things might get ugly. My Ektar 100 film is going to kill me if I don’t employ it. 

  4. Airlines & the TSA

    While attempting to make my journey to Europe easier, we thought “Hey, maybe your bags can be shipped ahead of time” — keep in mind I’ll have to take at least two 50lb suitcases given the length of my time abroad. Lugging those around by myself doesn’t sound too thrilling at all. Shipping seemed like a good alternative.

    …but then a thought came to mind…

    Perhaps putting up with airline fees and their rather horrible service is better than being pulled out of the line by federal agents because:

    1. I’m on an international flight …with

    2. Zero checked bags …and

    3. A one-way ticket…

    Yeah. On second thought, I didn’t have my sights set on being breaking news on CNN.

  5. Jetsetter is having a sale on the Orient Express - Venice to London.
Ohhhhh if I had the money I would take it. I blame my mother for my Murder on the Orient Express curiosity, really I do.

  6. Hmmm… Shout Out

    If there are cool people in California, specifically Los Angeles who would like to hang out… let me know… I might need a place to stay next month.

    haha … Just gonna put that out there!

  7. Do you know how long your days are when you start it at 2:00AM? Incredibly long! You can get so much done!

About me

I have a working compass for one city alone. Everywhere else, I'm perpetually lost.

However, this tends to lend itself well for stories, meeting new people and long walks.
