Upcoming Plans

I went back to the train station to get my tickets for the next couple of trips and the lady was a bit shocked and irritated. I understood it that I did not have to pay for the regional trains, but that I still needed a ticket to stamp – WRONG! I just needed my Eurail pass and I was good to go. She then explained this to me about three more ways, just to be sure I got it. Then she printed out the itinerary for Nice for me. That was actually great and I wanted one for Florence too, but I figured I would not try my luck with her any more. I will try to get that in Nice, reassurance for me…

My interview for the kibbutz went well and we are just waiting for an okay from the farmer. It is a small farm near the beach and there are no more than 4 volunteers at one time. They are also the only place around that will have volunteers for less than 2 ½ months, so it works out perfectly. I am a bit intimidated about the work that I will be doing, but it being October, I am sure the sun will not be too much for me.

I am making some plans to meet up with a friend from school. She will be in Italy for a while working and we thought it a perfect opportunity. We are working on four situations 1) meet in Italy 2) meet in Germany 3) meet in France 4) meet halfway between her in Italy and me in France – I know those are pretty much all of our options, but we are taking our time and waiting for me to find out about the tutoring program.
