dun dun... dun dun....

an open mind and four to six months holiday time!!

I am in need of a massive brainstorm from anyone/everyone, but especially those with European travel under their belts, to assist me in planning a four-month European summer vacation. Formerly planned to be the summer of my dreams with a dear friend, I was recently informed of a certain, drastic change in plans (I'm not comfortable discussing it here).
My ticket is entirely non-refundable, and so I will be trudging through instead of losing 1.2k on it.
I land on the 17th of July in Frankfurt, and will be travelling alone to see as much of Europe as I can in what time I have. A Eurail Pass is possible, as well as other student options, though I will be pedestrian-bound otherwise.

I have never left this continent, though I like to think I'm tough-as-nails and can muster the moxy for the solo expedition. No experience in foreign countries and sad language skills in the romantic ones will probably limit the eligible areas/activities. Lastly, I am currently busting my ass to make as much money as possible to take with me and am looking at a budget of <$6,000 USD... (~$4,500 EU currently)

Please help out with any ideas, experiences, advice, contacts, etc.!! I'm sure I'll need it very soon! :)

Thanks in advance!

I've been in Vienna for about two weeks. The wine here is awful. I'm going to pack up and leave as soon as it's possible.

I took a lover while I was here, a young, blank canvas of a lover. I have adorned that canvas with my soul. I long to be back in Barcelona, where the wind blows through my hair and the cigars are a quarter of the price.

I will be vacationing near Munich soon, I plan on fishing. FIshing and drinking wine. You are invited to join me.

Until we drink together,
A. Sarkees

Welcome to this new livejournal community. We have to all act unsatisfied and tipsy, but not drunk. Expatriates never got drunk. They drank a lot of wine, though. I wonder how they did it. Also, I think that it goes without saying, but exclamation marks have no business being in any posts in this community. Expatriates never got too excited.
