    Sounds nice Masa. If you liked the women in the Czech republic you should visit Sweden Norway or Denmark, in my opinion Scandinavian girls are the hottest in Europe.

    In 12 days i'm going to Bulgaria to party with my friends. 5kr(swedish money) for one shot of tequila down there, that's like 65 cents, i don't know what the price on a shot of Tequila is in all your home countries but in Sweden it costs you at least 5 bucks at most places.

    EDIT: Okay so today i'm going to Bulgaria, see you suckers in a week!

    Alright, update on where I'm at!

    Last night at 5am, after 42 straight hours on the train/bus, I finally arrived in Vancouver. I have two words that describe my trip: Freight Delay. See, I learned that Amtrak doesn't actually own the railroad tracks. They get to use them for free, and sell very cheap train tickets because of that. The downside is that Union Pacific does own the tracks, and therefore the freight trains always have first priority. We spent a lot of time sitting and waiting for them to go by. This resulted in an accumulated 6.5 hour delay, which the train conductor managed to whittle down to 5 hours by some speedy driving near the end of the trip. My one other complaint is that my train car was minus a billion degrees, and I had trouble sleeping the first night because I was so cold. I was wearing half my clothes - pyjamas underneath jeans, multiple shirts - and I still froze. They fixed it the next day and the following night I slept the sleep of the dead.

    The train journey itself was gorgeous. We wound through the Sacremento River Valley, passed by Crater Lake, travelled high into the Cascade Mountains; every hour brought new and beautiful scenery. Even though it took a really long time, I'm glad I took the train instead of flying. I'm only sad that we came into Seattle when it was dark. I would have liked to see that mountain that Seattle has nearby.

    So yes, lots of fun in Vancouver ahead the next few days! After this, my 7 week vacation is officiallly over, and I have to go back to the real world, and find a job and stuff. *Sigh*

    i just came back from Amsterdam. One of these days I'm going to do a very detailed 'Masa ranks Europe' post in this thread, but until then, imagine how kickass Amsterdam was, now multiply that by ten and you'll have an idea.

    Humans are different from animals. We must die for a reason. Now is the time for us to regulate ourselves and reclaim our dignity. The one who holds endless potential and displays his strength and kindness to the world. Only mankind has God, a power that allows us to go above and beyond what we are now, a God that we call "possibility".
