5 weeks in Europe Hey guys & gals,
I won't be around much [at all] because I am leaving for Europe at 8:30am PST on Monday morning; I'll be backpacking for the next 5 weeks with the majority of transportation by train. I consider myself a pretty good amateur photographer with a knack for photography so I'll be taking tons, and I mean TONS, of photos - my prediction is somewhere over 10,000 pictures (or however many my portable 80gb external HD can hold). I'll post some here after I get back if anyone is interested. I'm also sending postcards to a few people who might want some... as long as you're you're willing to give up your name and address [P.O. Box is fine]. If you have any country preferences, these are the few countries I currently plan on attending, subject to change:
Sweden
Denmark
Germany
Netherlands
Belgium
France
United Kingdom
Switzerland
Austria
Italy
I have unlimited train travel throughout 18 different countries [EURail Pass] so I know I've missed a bunch, but those that I mentioned are the planned ones so far.
I'm taking my old T-Mobile Dash with me so I'm hoping that works out okay. I am kind of interested in seeing how good the GSM coverage is all over the place. I won't be testing out UMA over there [as much as I want to] as I found it a bit cheaper to suspend my account for a month and get me a prepaid sim card [with free incoming and free roaming] - well, that and I don't plan on making too many calls back home anyway.
Take care, I'll see ya'll when I get back. |
