Travel Stats

I've slowly brought the whirling dervish of "random after-travel things to do" to heel, and life seems to more closely resemble normal this morning. As I take the first steps into "no more traveling" land, I thought I would take a minute to reflect back on the last month, through my favorite writing tool: the list.

Total money spent: $2,324.17 ($83/day)

Cities visited: 7 (Budapest, Bratislava, Milan, Riva S. Vitale, Lucerne, Basel, Berlin)

Moneny spent on transportation: $1,104.29 ($39/day)

Flights taken: 6

Trains taken: 5

Subways/trams taken: Too many to count

Money spent on lodging: $394 ($14/day)

Nights in a hostel: 12

Nights with friends: 13

Money spent on food, liquor, entertainment, and shopping: $825.88 ($29/day)

Best Purchase: Fuzzy boots in Lucerne

Caffe lattes drunk: Too many to count

Pounds gained: 6

Best city: Berlin

Worst hangover: Berlin

Next trip: After I make $2,324.17 from the Big Idea

Glad you enjoyed Berlin (by the hangover statistic above, I'm assuming you enjoyed it!). Next time let us recommend some good recovery spots... Brunching in Berlin

Just a few clarifications to your itemization:

"Cities visited": (+2) - Mendrisio (crappy mall we walked to on a lovely day, and Lugano (where you procured the bulk chocolate and...)

"Best Purchase: Fuzzy boots in" Lugano

Remeber, you wore your fuzzy boots on the lovely day we walked through the mud to the crappy mall?!
