Last night was so much fun!

September 5, 2008 at 2:02 PM

Pablo and I have been paling around together. Last night we hung out in the hostel's kitchen, (yes this hostel had a kitchen) where we met an eclectic mix of Brazilians, French, and Americans. Everyone has a story and is coming from a different corner of the world.

I think that everyone traveling seems to have a similar view of life. We all like to live life cheaply and prefer to save for travel rather than to go out to nice dinners and blow cash on our clothes.

We all went to the same bar where we saw the best cover band that I've ever seen. I got one of the member's email, but not his myspace. Unfortunately, I have not had internet yet today, so I will email him when I can and see if I cant get a link to their music.

I'm on the train to Amsterdam now and excited for what everyone has said is a great city-beautiful and exciting, with legendary coffee shops.

I've been giving my contact info to everyone that I've met and I will meet again with Pablo tonight in Amsterdam. He took the bus and I took the train, but tonight we will continue the party. I may be meeting up with a guy that I also met in the hostel in Brussels, who is from Iowa on Sunday as well, so friends are plentiful in Europe!

It seems that you do not need a reservation to ride the train from Brussels to Amsterdam, but you need on from Paris to Brussels. I don't understand that. It's the same train.

Well, that's all I have to say. My next entry will be from Amsterdam.
