I just got jewed.

I was in Paris with my two travel buddies, they were headed to Mont St Michel (Normandy area of France) and i've been there so i thought i'd detour to a friend in Zurich, Switzerland. I waste roughly 200 euros getting there (Probably my first mistake) and i can't get a hold of her once i arrive.

If i knew how to type bbcode on this stupid keyboard i would make FUCK really huge and in it's own paragraph for dramatic effect.

I took a huge gamble, my finances weren't that crash hot but i really wanted to catch up with this friend and not go to a place i've been before. Turns out it didn't pay off. Now i have a few options, i can stay at a friends uni for 15 euros a night, which is pretty cheap, especially in Switzerland, but it'll cost me like 80 euros to get to Geneva from Zurich, FUCK.
I could cut my losses and just go home, so over traveling even though it's only been six weeks. I hate the cold and i miss Australia SO much, and apparently i'm a whiner :p
I could also keep to the plan, catch up with my friends but spend only when absolutely necessary, which is like being homeless. And i'll be broke when i get home, which i dont want because i'm moving to Sydney.

Ugh, i'm just venting so i'm not really asking for a solution. Just really really pissed off.

RAWR!

cut your loses and bail.

I started driving out to cali not to long ago, and got to about texas before i came back because I ended up not really wanting to go.

Was a hell of a three day ride though.

How about flying from Zurich to Greece, staying here for a few days (on a very low budget;)) and then go back home?

Ah...the joys of travelling on a shoestring...at the end of the day Renzo, you'll laugh about it years later when your hair grows grey or balding. :)

It is on a French keyboard. Its like they tried their hardest to make it difficult to use. You have to press shift and another button to get a full stop for instance.
