Every Stone

Will catch up on back-dated posts — they’re saved, just waiting to be posted — after I leave, but for now, I can share my new travel plans. Visas for Russia take up to a month unless you pay large fees, and it’s probably not the best idea to be an American women traveling alone in Russia right now, so I think I’m going to do Eastern Europe by train: Prague, Vienna, Budapest, Bucharest, then finally Athens and maybe Istanbul if I make it that far. We’ll see what I come up with these next few days.
