Away we go...

Dear friends, family and internet loiterers, 

I am going to Europe in June, and here's something of a record. 

My itinerary looks a bit like this:

  • Stockholm (for a work conference, and buying pants and shoes befitting of tall people)
  • Berlin (for art and sausages)
  • Gersau (for wacky Swiss mountainside chateau lake paradise complete with rowboats and cable cars)
  • Paris (for spending times with two of my bestest BFFs and hoping that rats don't nibble on our lady areas in the catacombs) 
  • Stupidly picturesque village in the south of France (self-explanatory)

Here's some things I have organised: 

  • Most flights 
  • Most accommodation 
  • A lodger to water the one and only plant in my apartment
  • A book to read on the plane 
  • A Google map of all Sephora locations within reach. 

Here's some things I haven't organised:

  • Learning any Swedish/German/French beyond ja/schaudenfreude/steak frites 
  • How to get from any airport to anywhere else 
  • Finding any awesome Swedish metal/noise/drone bands to go see
  • Choosing violent and/or offensive films that I should watch on the plane so that no children sit near me. 

Just over three weeks to go and I am yet to check off these pertinent details! Wish me luck. Pls.

  1. I wish you luck but you needn't worry too much about not knowing German or French, or Swiss German for that matter you'll be fine.
