Planning stages...

Currently working on a number of things:

• working out my itinerary
• comparing prices of tickets
• organising to visit friends in Munich
• working out how to get from Munich to Amsterdam (it's not quite as easy as you'd imagine, but it looks like there's a direct night train :)
• working out what to take
• working out what I need to take that I don't own
• reading about the merits of different backpacks on the Internet
• suffering through work to earn money so I don't have to come home quite as fast!

It's all very exciting - I'm going into the city to compare travel prices this afternoon.
