... All I have to give
The overwhelming thing about travelling like this is the sheer amount of stuff that there is to do. It's so daunting to see a list of everything there is to see in a certain city, and then to realize that there's only so much time, so much money, or so much interest.

I think I'm realizing, too, that it's okay to spend a day or two just chilling. It feels like a waste of a perfectly good day that can be used to do everything else, but if we don't, we'll end up getting so burnt out that we can't function. Besides, it's just as important to see the chill-out places in a city as it is to see all the museums and sights and tourist traps.

I like having a home base, too. I guess this trip is just honing my travelling skills. Seriously, though--travelling is such a diverse thing, and there are so many ways to do it, and different people will love different ways. There's absolutely no doubt that I love travelling, and I want to do more of it, for sure, but I'm just learning my style, I guess.

Anyways, there's a lineup for the computers again, so I'm off... to find something more to do with myself, and figure out what else this city has to offer!
