From Vienna

wow...
My travel goes even crazier everyday.
I stayed 1night in Joerg´s parents house in Pforzheim and flew to Vienna. The weather was shitty for last 2days with rain and cold. I stayed in my friend´s friend´s apartment for 2nights and then looked for a host on the net for next few more days. Last night, I got email and I could stay in one of CS members from today but finally my friend, Vera´s friend offered me to stay longer in the same place. I cancelled the appointment with CS guy very late, hopefully he understood the situation. I called Katharina, another friend from Duffcarrig to organise visiting her in Vienna last night and it seems to be a little tricky but need to talk to her for more details later. My friend from Camino, Thilo sent me email this morning with good news his wife´s condition is a bit better and he could manage to come to see me if i´m still nearby. He is German but lives in France near the border so he though I was still in Freiburg but I´m now in Vienna. So, he thought to come over to Vienna to see me shortly but it didn´t seem to be a really good idea as he doesn´t have much time, then. I checked cheap flights to Frankfurt and from Frankfurt to Dublin again to see if it´s possible I visit him before flying to Dublin.
So, there are some fairly cheap flight connections between the two cities and Dublin so I might throw out the ticket from Salzburg to Dublin and go to see him next week.
Well, what a mess!
From Germany to Switzerland, again to Germany, and then to Austria and again to Germany and France... It´d be better not to think how many times I move from a place to another.

Nevertheless, it´s just good to hear his wife feels better and we can meet up before I leave. I´ll see what happens for next few days and where finally I will be.

I expected to see my friend, Edgar from Camino here but it´s not possible to contact him recently. I don´t know what happened and if there´s anything wrong with him or with me. It´s just strange. With these things happening in Vienna, I felt screwed and very bad.

I´ll walk around the city again with better weather today and then go to see Mozart opera collection in a theatre in the centre at night. It sounds just very typical tourist´s thing but I have never seen any opera before so it´d be ok for once.

Well, well, well...
Things are full of unexpected things and they make me so tired sometimes but I appreciate to meet my friends this time. Just great.

What´s more, I´m looking forward being back to Duffcarrig in Ireland to see all my friends in the community. It´d be completely different to be there as a visitor.

Enjoy your weekends, my friend.
Missing you all a lot.

Love,
Sejin

Freiburg, Germany

Ok, posting has been stopped since the last post of Granada photos which was done in Namur, Belgium.
Well, I flew from Tenerife to Girona nearby Barcelona, staying 1 night in the airport and then flew to Paris, staying about 1week, meeting Camino friends and then took a bus to Brussels to go to Namur to see my friends, after that to Cologne, Hamburg, Biel(Switzerland) and then now in Freiburg, Germany.

I´ve met nice people, talking a lot about Freiburg, Black Forest and of course life and etc, etc. I´m going to see another friend in Pfrozheim tomorrow before I fly to Vienna.

The trip is crazy to move from a place to another, packing and unpacking, contacting people on the net and phone. However, I enjoy a lot, think a lot and sometimes miss my friends back home. Well, things anyhow go on like this. One and a half month to go.
Maybe I check with my travel agency if it´s possible to postpone my flight back home.
;-)

You can still contact me by email either by this page.

Love,
Sejin

Where to go



I'm often lost on the road; with or without a map.
However, it's somehow enjoyable especially, in a very tiny town; ironical to be lost there.
In my life, I'm often lost, not knowing where to go.
Today, I'll be lost somewhere again but I'll get to SOMEWHERE at last.
August in Paris is wierd; chilly and sometimes cold.
People wear woolen scarves and leather jackets.
I've got email from my friend; there were big fire in mountains in Tenerife after I left.
Calima, the unbelievablely unpleasant hot wind probably whipped the island.
I'm in the middle of the extreme.
