I'm back in Europe for part two.
The flight(s) were terrible. Not that they were bad flights, but I had a nine hour lay over and two connecting flights meaning I had to go through customs and security a a million times, and I traveled for about 24 hours straight.
I almost missed my flight in Frankfurt because the passport check line was so long. I had to run through the airport which nearly killed me after sitting for so long.
But I did make it to Prague, and I'm sitting in my hostel now thinking about where I'm going to get my food from. It's a much different transition than last year. College has accustomed me to food whenever I want it, privacy whenever I need it, and friends whenever I want them. Although I'm nowhere near a culture-shocked as I was last year, this makes up for it. The thought of going out and finding food is much more daunting than I remember. At least everything is cheaper here.
My hostel is pretty crazy. I'm in a room with about 20 other people with 3 different levels of bunks. The moment I walk in a girl started telling someone about "a girl with blonde dreads who has having sex last night and then peed all over someones luggage drunk afterwards".
Ahh, the hostel life.
I haven't ventured much because I have been so tired. I slept for a few hours as soon as I got here. Alright, I'm going to go find some food in this city.

actually you can see the club on your prague picture, its to the left of the right tower
Of all the insane things I did in college and for a few years following, I never stayed in a hostel. Thank you for reminding me why. Wish I could check out that club in Prague Stefan mentioned. Well, you know, because of the cheap beer. It has nothing to do with the Swedish girls. Stay safe & have fun!

the club is to the left of the tower in the middle
