Dear Friends,
I think I've told all of you about my trip to Europe, upon which I embark tomorrow afternoon. I've done as much planning as I could have, well, think I have, and have plotted as much as I would wish to plot. Mostly I am trying to relax and enjoy nature and people on this trip, that is to say, planning is not of the utmost importance. However, being the serial planner that I am, I have created a route to follow, and a schedule by which to abide. I set off with a backpack and a green hot dog bag. Here I share the schedule with you:
Florida > Ohio > London (6 hours) > Helsinki (overnight)
Train to Salo, my hometown in Finland (3 day stay or so)
Turku > Stockholm > Oslo (to stay with the ebullient and fun Miss Sill-J)
Oslo > Amsterdam (staying at Eindhoven with the funny and HK:y Miss Mona)
Amsterdam > Zurich > Interlaken (Switzerland!)
Interlaken > Rome (3 days)
Rome > Nice (2 days)
Nice > Barcelona (2 days)
Barcelona > Madrid (2 days)
Madrid > San Sebastian (one day)
San Sebastian > Bordeaux (one day)
Bordeaux > Paris (3 days)
Paris > London (3-4 days)
London > JFK > Florida
With that said, I will spend alotta time lounging and coffee shopping, and hopefully journaling and blogging. I can't promise exciting stuff, but who knows? Maybe exploding burritos are only the beginning of a more interesting summer! Take a peek at the blog if you got a moment and ridicule me for my touristy faults and follies.
Someone brought up whether I am off to find myself on a spiritual quest. I hope not, but who knows? Maybe I'll be touched by some miracle, like my laundry won't stink too much :p
I don't think I've sent this to an exhaustive list, and as I should get some sleep before traveling, I hope that if you find I left someone that I should have included, that you might be kind enough to send this on to them with my apologies :P
Good night, and ttyl.
