It is not that difficult really and you do not need a lot of money, just get some work, buy your ticket to the next place and go. I carry everything I need in my bag along with a tent. The language barrier is not a major problem, it just takes longer to explain what you mean/want sometimes.

The key is this: Just GO!

My friend and I travelled to Munich, Germany a few days back for Octoberfest. The festival itself was ok but never in my life have I met such ignorant and inhospitable people. We simply tried to ask a police officer for directions to a camp site, next thing we know we are being man handled by 6 of the buggers, they searched all through our bags chucking our stuff down on the ground then took our passports away for about 20minutes to have them checked. Basically they treated us like sh!t.

That night we slept rough in a train station and the next morning got the first train back to Besançon. I have decided after that incident that I am never going to Germany again as long as I live and that they are all bas**rds. Should have listened to my Grandfather.

We are keeping a daily diary of events and photographs. Perhaps I will be able to post some pics on here somewhen but the computers in this internet cafe dont have a usb connection for my camera.

Next stop is to get more work in the south of france, possibly we will be working on a ski resort, that will earn us the money for travell to rome then greece for christmas to harvest lemons

Because you're American. (At least I think you are)


My sister lives in Germany with my brother-in-law, and they never get treated like ****.

Hey Ric. I'm not supposed to advertise, so I won't name any places. But you remember that one site? You know what I'm talking about? Come drop by some time. There's lots to read if you're bored.
