Big Move

   Fri, April 25, 2008 - 5:44 AM
So, this post is a bit of a boast, and a bit of fear all bundled in one.

On June 1 I move to Europe for the summer. I will spend half of it in Germany, in Essen. I will also go on a smallish pilgrimage to important places to me in Germany, visit friends in Berlin, and then off to Belgium for the other half. If I can find a way to afford it, I will go to the UK for the month of August, to visit friends, go to a conference, and meet with an academic adviser/mentor.

So, all you folks in Europe, get ready. There is a good chance a poor grad student may come knocking on your door looking for beer and vegan fair.

So incredibly excited for you! A most excellent choice, I must agree, although Colorado will miss you.

I was really thinking about it, but it is too expensive to bring it with me. While I am there, though, I'm going to try and find a used folding bicycle, so I can bring it around with me. I wish I had an extra bit of cash to buy a new good quality touring folding bicycle.
