On a personal note:
I stepped of the train into the small town of Interlaken, Switzerland a few days ago - having had a terrible day consisting of losing money, missing trains, and much more - and all my qualms and complaints were wiped clean away. The beauty of this quite city at 1 am astounded me and I much enjoyed my short walk through the light snow to my hostel.
I have been here now for 4 days or so with the intention of doing some awesome extreme sports like sky diving and bungee jumping, but have yet to do any of them. The weather here in Interlaken has been unceasingly snowy and cold, preventing any decent visibility. So I have opted to stay mostly inside of my hostel, relaxing and watching movies, going for short walks in the snow and cooking meals to save some extra money (still a good trip if you ask me...). Tomorrow, Saturday, is supposed to clear up and I might actually get a nice hike or crazy adventure in!
Meanwhile, I thought I would update all of you on where I am planning on going in my last month or so of traveling, so here is a very rough tentative schedule. If you or anyone you know has an available couch or floor, I would gladly trade a piece of art or pan of brownies for a roof! The more locals I can stay with, the better!
