Spainward bound!

Just another update: Got my visa! It looks like I'm all set to go. I am still sifting through airline rules and regulations and researching the phone and internet situation over there, but it will all come together in due time. I also got my international hostelling membership taken care of which has given me access to some really sweet discounts for hostels around the world and rail tickets. I found out that the hostel I am hoping to stay in upon my arrival in Oviedo does not do online booking so it looks like I will have to call them... still working on the best way to go about that one. I might have to borrow that phone card that I gave Jay for Christmas, haha

I am also currently compiling a list of important addresses and phone numbers both home and abroad to take with me on the plane. I am basically attempting to pack a little bit of everything in my little bookbag along with my laptop on board just in case I need to survive a few days without my luggage... you never know with airlines.

That is about all for now, T-minus 1 month until I'm off to Spain!
