Some of you may have heard rumors that I have graduated. It's true. I am a college grad. In order to accomodate my lack of enthusiasm for joining the likes of fellow bachelor degree holders and become employed, I bought a ticket to Europe, became a self-proclaimed miser in order to save money and have recently renewed my passport. Don't worry though, I have found a safe place for my degree and it will be there when I get back. I have been making my preparations for my European adventure everyday and this is my (tentative) schedule so far:

I leave July 2, stay with Tonya until she gets hitched in Vilnius, Lithuania on July 28. I will then move on to conquer Eastern Europe for 3 weeks on my own. I will first travel to Warsaw, Poland then move on to Krakow. While there I will visit Auschwitz, Warwel castle and the sights of the city itself. If I decide to stick to my plans I will then move onto Budapest, Hungary then to Vienna, Austria and then to Prague, Czech republic. I will finish up this portion of my travels in Munich, Germany.

For the next month (starting August 19) I will have a trusty travel companion, Peter Thomas, hailing from Phoenix, AZ and we will travel from Germany through Switzerland, Italy, France, Spain, the UK, Belgium, the Netherlands and back to Frankfurt. Pete will go back to the desert September 14.....and as for me.....?????

I havent decided yet when I will return. It depends on family, $$$, soccer opportunities and my burning urge to attend Oktoberfest.
