More sites unseen by you....but seen by me!

Im currently sitting in a hostel in Geneva, it is a beautiful place. Anyway, since my last blog I have travelled to Berlin, Salzburg (Austria), Bologna (Italy), and now Geneva (Switzerland).

Berlin was a great place, super friendly and kind of grungy, with lots of punk rockers roaming the streets. We found some really great pubs and hung out with some British guys till 4 or 5 in the morning. We actually got kind of lost while with them but, it is all part of the adventure. Continuing on. I stood on Hitlers bunker, tried to climb the Berlin wall, had my passport stamped at Check Point Charlie (the border crossing formerly seperating East and West Berlin) and I climbed the Reichstag Parliament building. Along the way I have had to forgo using contractions while typing because the keyboards are crazy over here, like the z and y are switched, anyway point proved.

In Austria I roamed the gardens and spots by the river in which the Sound of Music were filmed and had an amazing traditional meal called Sweinstein, I think.

Bologna was a shorter trip as well and I was sick for half of it, but the Italian food in Italy is truly the best.

I wish I could upload photos, but unfortunately I am still not in a position to do so. I will proudly show them off as soon as I return.

Two weeks to go and Paris, Amsterdam, and maybe Scotland are on the menu ; )
