Europe 2007

Iv had three changes and in total a 9.5 hour train journey to the very south of Italy where I planned to spend a few nights before heading to Greece.

As you can guess, for most of the journey I was sat in carriages with young kids arrrggghhhhh!!! Luckily I just made all of my connections and I arrived late in Brindisi The people in the hostel were so amazing, I was handed a drink straight away and I apologised for talking non stop because I was talking English to an English person for the first time in ages.

That night the mosquitos made friends with me, against my wishes. No matter what sprays, lotions and potions I put on they still loved me.

In the morning I went to explore Brindisi, it was a very small town, I hit the shops, sent a parcel home. In the parcel was a dog te-shirt which I bought in Bergamo for Freya. " I thought you would like it Freya and I really miss you very much too."

I made a few new freinds at the hostel and I will see them again beause I have to return to get my ferry to Croatia from there.

There was 7 of us on the over night ferry to Patras, Greece. I was the only one who had bought a cabin. We all got very drunk drinking very expensive wine at 15.00 euros a bottle it was fun, my cabin was empty so we crept everyone in for the night, it was hillarious, but we almost got caught!
