THis sucks...I'm planning a month long trip to Europe this summer and if it keeps going like that I'm gonna have to skim a week or two off...:grumbling.


I know a weak dollar is good for US exports, but now that the economy seems to be rebounding the US can't risk having a weak currency anymore, specially with such a flamboyant deficit.

My company's primary vendor is located in Tuttlingen, Germany, so I have had to keep an eye on currency fluctuations to make sure that we're not being overcharged on shipping quotes.

I'm gonna start in Budapest where a friend has an apartment and move on from east to west.

My preliminary route is Budapest, Bratislava, Vienna, Prague, Berlin, Frankfurt, Amsterdam, Brussels, Paris, Barcelona, Madrid. This probably wont be my final route, and I will probably see a couple of places in the middle.

I'm skipping London because I might go and do my MA there, and Italy because I think I won't have the time to see it properly.
