The Big One

Well the time has come, aside from my pilgrimage to the Guinness Storehouse in Dublin, the most important objective of me even moving to London. EUROTRIP! Its difficult to say what i had expected of the trip now that im typing this in hindsight. I would probably be safe to say that it turned out nothing like i expected but a blast all the same.

If you didn’t know by now 3 of us were to travel through Western Europe, well for my leg anyway, Binh, Serdy and I were to go thru Spain, France, Belgium, The Netherlands, Germany, Denmark, Sweden. It did turn out rather similar but lets just say there were many iterations in our plan. Funnily enough planning ahead might have been an idea :) You live and you learn.

There were 2 things that i spent my money on in Europe that i thought was rather retarded. One was the amount of time in internet cafes planning, nuff said, the other was toilets. At 50 euro cents a pop it wasnt long before i went over the 10 euro mark, and they wonder why Europe generally smells like a urinal.

I'll have to be honest that i didn’t plan(nice work Serdy) or expect anything from Europe, in the end i was surprised by what i found and enjoyed it to the full. Ill type a full trip blow by blow account in the next section , don’t be obliged to read it all .
