Just bought my Eurail pass! It's the most expensive thing I'll buy other than my ticket but I love the freedom I will have with the 2 month continuous global pass. As the time approaches and I try to plan, but not over plan, I am already realizing the differences I am going to encounter in Europe. It seems to me that they live their lives in a much more present sense than we do in America.
I have been reeling over the thought that one can only imagine fantasy and reality as we know it, as we have been taught or shown, and that there are things I am going to see and experience that I CAN'T imagaine because I haven't been exposed to them before.
Each day my itinerary changes just a little bit and I am rolling with the punches. I am so excited to get it completed and post it here!
I have so much to do and so much to see, but my focus for this journey is me.
Me being able to:
conquer Europe on my own, to take care of myself and stay healthy and safe, to use my resources and things I have been taught by family and friends to survive, to learn how to trust people and allow them to show me a new perspective on life, to put myself out there and re-learn how to network and small talk, and appreciate the littlest, tiniest things...so much, one step at a time....BUM FOOT AND ALL! ha
Till next time...
