I'm from Europe myself (in germany so I'm right in the middle of things) and...a lot of times a flight is definetly the better option, even though I'm not opposed to travelling by train at all. But there's so many cheap flights here in Europe..by companies like Ryanair..Airberlin(not quite sure about that one)...or even by Lufthansa (the german airline with the higehst reputation). For example if I have to decide whether I'm going to Paris by train or by flight, I'll take the flight any day, because it only takes one hour and costs 99 Euros (to Paris and back from Paris) - even if it's not a special offer ( i think right now one could get a flight for 30Euros or so)..same thing is true for Nice (South France) which is close to Monaco...or Italy...or Spain....if you wanna see every single country here in Europe one of those train passes might be the cheaper and thus better option, but I would take flights into consideration, too, especially if you dont feel the urge to feel every single country
"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"
Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.
You've been "getting ready" for two years.
She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.
Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.
