"Travel feeds the soul, or probably we just need an excuse to go"
~ Me
Evil. Yours truly's brother has returned from his EUROPE backpacking trip and caused yours truly to turn green with envy (note to self: green is not a flattering color for skin) after seeing his photos. All 2,100 of them, excluding 1,800 from his fellow travellers....*whistles*
The 2 or possibly 3 positive things from his trip are:
1. my new smart double breast buttons coat with shoulder buckles (and a perfect fit! yours truly is impressed);
2. my new earth tone shades of color cashmew shawl; and
3. my new sister-in-law (no, yours truly's brother didn't get married on a whim in Europe, but he did get attached and came back as part of a couple with his travel mate.)
While yours truly have quite a nice positive vibe about said sister-in-law but really, its 1 & 2 that has me glad that he's back. *deadpan*
As a result of evil brother's backpacking trip, yours truly is now dying to go to Europe. Sigh. Think of the money. Sigh.
In other news, *Starry is planning an Europe backpacking trip with her *gallant and has invited yours truly along. Yours truly has initally turned them down, since yours truly is not inclinded to be a third wheel, but now that (a) yours truly's evil brother just came back, causing yours truly to really want to go Europe and (b) *starry already has a 3rd person going, so if yours truly go, she won't be going with a couple and so (c) Europe trip is now in the works.
Yours truly will leave the majority of the trip planning to *Starry & her knight and if the ititernary fits yours truly, given that money and timing is not a problem, then yours truly will probably go along.
Hopefully.
Afterall, it is tough to find companions for an Europe backpacking trip.
But on the other hand, yours truly is hestiant about whether *Starry & her knight & friend constitutes frugal backpackers since knowing them, hmm....should I say they are used to certain *luxuries in life? Or at least, *Gallant seems to be and from what I understand....the friend as well. *whistles*
Ah well. We shall see. Let's leave the budget control to *Starry. Presumably she would be able to keep the 2 of them in check. *grin*

*Grin. Will keep them men in check! Not a matter of 'will' but a matter of actual budget.
Besides, money saved in food and lodging means money to spend on pretty things.
The question is really whether you can actually keep them in check? I presume you will have some form of control over *Gallant but over your fren? Hmm....doubtful...*laugh* and buying pretty things...sounds as if someone might just need to keep you in check too...Oh well. We shall see.
PS: Evil brother has provided me with a hard copy of hostels, etc. Will pass it on when I see you. There's a marvellous hostel modelled on THE LITTLE PRINCE that we shld stay, assuming we do go or more to the point, I go. ;)
