Fernweh

Still in the Big Apple – it's been an eventful stay so far… Sibylle arrived on Tuesday and we've been suffering in a VERY bad hostel, but try not to let it bring us down too much. The first three days (with people I met in D.C. and at the first hostel here) were really [...]

I've been in the Big Apple for two days now – and it's been very exciting and a lot of fun! Haven't had a minute by myself because I'm always hanging out and walking around with Willa and Adam I met in D.C. and with some other guys I met here. A completely different (and [...]

Opportunities to go online are rare here in D.C. – but I finally found a library with 15 minutes free access, so I thought I'd update y'all… I arrived on Wednesday, after a very short night (going to the club with Rhonda, Missy and their friend Shannon was a lot of fun!), and hooked up [...]

I quite enjoy myself here – specially the fact that this city is literally teeming with libraries… So I've been online every day, which turned out to be a really good thing, since there were exciting news from my friend Deb – she's given birth, not to the expected Sydney, but to a little Joey! [...]

Okay, after almost 24 hours of travelling I arrived in Pittsburgh and met up with my online friends Rhonda and Missy. Also yesterday I spent four hours in Albany, where I had dinner with another online friend, Christine. The youth hostel doesn't open until five, so I'm feeling a bit icky, but it's nothing a [...]

Enjoying myself in Canada – but it's a struggle not to buy loads of stuff, considering the low prices everywhere… *g* Thanks for your email, Missy – looking forward to Sunday a lot, can't wait to meet you! And Jack (if you have the time to read this, you poor offline sod LOL), miss you [...]

After a hot and pleasant stay in Provincetown I arrived in Montreal with the over night bus – a veery long drive with by far not enough sleep… Therefore I haven't done much today, specially since the weather was really nasty. The best definitely was my arrival – I walked up to the hostel when [...]

Only got five minutes until the library of Provincetown closes, but I just wanted to letyou all know that I`ve left Boston. I really enjoyed the last two days there – me and one of my room mates from the hostel (Jenny from Ohio) paired up and went exploring together. Such a great town, a [...]

Is such a great city! I enjoy every minute here, I love the contrast of old brick buildings and shiny office towers… Met some nice people at the hostel – they might take me with them one night, which is cool! Bostonians are generally very fashionable – and they love to jog! I spent some [...]

No problems getting here – and it`s only 3pm, so I`ll check out the freedom trail now… The internet access is somewhat crappy, everything takes waay to long, so no writing email today. Maybe tomorrow. Thanks to everyone who`s written to me – love you guys! The flight was okay, I got to watch The [...]
