How I'm Spending My Time

What this page IS: a record of how I'm doing.  I want to show that I am busy and being responsible with my money.  I am not lounging by a pool and spending lavishly for several months.  This is a major life project and requires some "project management" to maximize experiences while minimizing costs and adhering to time constraints.

What this page IS NOT: a well-written blog with nice stories or thoroughly-researched travel guides.  There are lots of great blogs out there, and you should read those for inspiration and information.  I have a limited amount of time so I don't want to put a lot of effort into writing.

Note:  For safety reasons, I will only be updating this AFTER I leave a place.

Dracula's Castle (Bran Castle):  Last Stop in Romania

Overrated.  Bram Stoker never visited - his novel Dracula was inspired by listening to other peoples' tales.  The legend is that Vlad the Impaler did stay here for a short time, but it's not certain.  I tried to go to Peles Castle, as I heard that was more exciting, but it was closed on the day I tried to go, and I was anxious to move on to Moldova, so I skipped it.  I'll save it for next time.
I did meet some great people on this tour though!  Two software developers living and working in the Netherlands, so I made some connections and we talked about differences and similarities between American and European work culture.  And we spent the rest of the afternoon exploring Brasov and drinking wine :-)
