Connecting Dots

Apologies for the gap in my life over the summer. I got busy with three jobs and enjoying the great little town of Winona before I moved. I now reside in the suburbs where nothing goes on and there is little life to be found. I'm currently waiting for my job to start in Rochester and then once I know where I'll be a little more permanently, I'll find ways to get involved. Volunteer. Make friends. Find a church. Throw parties. Join a community. Have a life. Buy a dog. Maybe even land a job.

So since I have no job, I'm more or less new to town (it's been a long time since I really lived here) and everybody works full time, I'm a little antsy. I need to go exploring. I'll be done in Roch by early November, if not sooner, and looking to go somewhere.

Today's potential destinations:
Italy
Budapest*
Roadtrip to the end of I90 W*
France*
Italy
Spain*, but I've already been there
England, but if I waited til Spring I'd have travel companions
Italy
Vienna
San Francisco
Bangladesh*

*Indicates places where I have connections - if not places to stay then atleast tour guides or people to visit and explore with.
Where did your last journey take you? Any great ideas/deals for me? Please share!
