Alive in Basel
I have filled about a hundred pages with thoughts on traveling (I take back my earlier pretentious thoughts on traveling, and instead proclaim that I love traveling because I get to leave behind all the baggage and judgments that come with being Ms. Write Again Soon at home...more on that later), genius ideas for the Big Idea, and a new and improved list of 50 things to do before I die.
All of which will be transcribed and posted later. Because, I swear, its easier for me to find hot man love than it is to hook my computer up to an internet line.
So for now, know that I'm alive and kicking, and very, very sad about the high cost of living here. Just call me,
Poor thing in Basel.

You're in my home land!!! Isn't it beautiful??! Expensive, yes, but beautiful. As you've probably noticed, dining out can be extrememly expensive, however groceries from the Migros isn't so bad. It is Carnical or Festival time of year there right now so keep your eyes open for that. It's called Fass Nacht, and people generally dress up and march through the centre in different musical bands , the costumes are amazing. Actually, Basel has one of the better FassNachts, with over 300 bands playing through the streets! Have fun!
