At this point, I have a rough itinerary, a packing list, most of my supplies, a couple tour books, and one heck of a sense of excitement. The reason for my mildly unprepared state is that I am going solo on this trip. I attempted to get some of my friends to go with me, but for many different reasons, that did not come to fruition. Therefore, I'm on my own, and thus I don't need to do nearly as much planning. I'm probably going to reserve hostels in the big cities, but otherwise it'll be pretty freestyle.
So, here we go! Here's my itinerary, and I'll keep posting as progress is made.

Dear Derek,
Wow, that sounds like a fantastic trip! And also very exhausting since the schedule is very tight. I look forward to following you on the web; I still have great memories for your last trip.
Are you taking advantage of the EuroRail train pass? I am trying to think of someone you might be able to stay with in Berlin, I'll keep you posted.
Happy graduation and have a wonderful trip!
Love,
Claudia
