Well you and I are both going to Europe and there is one thing going on thats very cool right now for us: The dollar is much stronger against the Euro than it has been in a while. When I was there in 2006, it was about 1.6 USD : 1 Euro, in 2008 it was the same, and now it's 1.3 USD to a Euro, thanks to the economic meltdown. As to how that actually came to be that we had a crisis and yet the dollar got stronger is beyond me, however: Congratulations, we just made 30 cents per dollar Anyways due to the unpredictable market, this could change any time soon, so I am going to buy a bunch of Euros very soon. It might be in your interest to do the same, could save you hundreds of dollars, and who knows where this situation could lead our currency...


/end rant.

For me it's 15-20 bucks in gas, 20 bucks in food/drinks/whatever, then the ticket...bah.

would seriously consider that, but unfortunately I'm basically broke
although I guess I could at least put a bit more effort into looking for a job and therefore make money.
thanks a bunch though :]

lol
gas has actually been not that bad lately... although fortunately my parents still pay.
anyway by February that probably won't change... and I'll probably be riding with a friend anyway.

 

[xforeverxmetalx]

although...
I wonder if my dad would get me some Euros and let me pay him back later, since I already have a job for the summer.

Ah, that sucks. Yeah I mean working part time, from now until you leave, you could maybe make 5 or 6000 bucks. I'm also jobless atm =/

By doing this i am sort of betting that the Euro will not get any weaker, which is a hard judgement to make, there are significant fluctuations every day...so I'm not gonna put all my eggs in one basket, maybe convert $1000 or so, see what happens. Who knows.
