My journey to Europe begins...

With a little proud, and a lot of effort, its about time i announce that on december the 25th, my journey to Europe begins

I know some of you must think im crazy by visitng Europe during winter (indeed, im crazy, lol), but, the ticket was a gift from my mother to celebrate my 32 birthday so..i couldnt say no...

To make it short, i will be about2 months in Europe, with just my backpack and all my desire of meeting as many places (and fellow Amigans) as possible.

For sure, i will be in Barcelona, Madrid, Paris, south France (not sure wich cities yet, but maybe Carcassonne, Bourdeaux, Nize, Marseille), Belfast, Dublin, Glasgow, Edinburgh, Manchester, Liverpool, Birmingham, Nottingham, Warsaw, Krakaw, Budapest, Bucarest, Prague, Brno, Zagreb, some parts of Italy (not sure where yet), Zurich, Salzburg, Ljubliana, Belgrade, Amsterdam, Rotterdam, Eindhoven and some other cities i have just to decide.

If by any chance, you happen to live in one of those cities, and want to meet one of the few remaining 100% Amiga user from Argentina, share a beer or a cup of tea/chocolate, let me know, PM,. write me an email or something!

Any hints/tips on what to visit, where to stay (chepaest way possible please since my budget will be very short) any other citis i should visit etc etc etc are more than welcome!!!!

I want to meet as many of you as possible!! Make my dream come true please!!

PD: of course, i have some $$$ saved to buy Amiga gear!!!


Gracias!

Sebastian

welcome to Europe m8

You should visit Retro-Nerd and make him show you the factory where they produced Amiga back in the old days

Denmark is a lovely place too, but not the best in the winter, but we got the most beautiful girls and lovely beers

Wow!!!!
Where is Retro-Nerd located? Cool idea indeed!!!

I know Denmark is a lovely place (i always remember Morten Olsen, Laudrup brothers, Preben Elkjaer Larsen & Hans Christian Andersen as well), but Scandinavia will be my next trip to Europe, maybe iin 2008 or 2009....

Shkoll!!!!!
