  One more month of gruesome tests and studying and this summer's vacation is a fact. Finally! Except for a short trip to the Greek island of Crete, I haven't really been on vacation for years.
No wonder I'm dying to travel abroad. A couple of weeks ago, I got this crazy idea of flying to New York. I've seen that city in hundreds of movies, and for quite some time I've been curious whether it lives up to it's reputation of exciting metropolis. Tickets never were as cheap as they are now, but because of my cash-flow problems I'm still forced to pick a travel destination closer to Holland, which means I'm going to stay in Europe.
