A promising summer

I think I finally get to do Europe justice this summer. For once, I'm not going to spend thousands of dollars just to visit a boyfriend in one country. That was pretty great though, despite the fact that the only way to see each other was to spend lots of money only to really spend not much actual time together.
There's a giant theatre festival happening in Prague this year called the Prague Quadriannual, and in it is a Scenofest which holds lots of great theatre design workshops for set, costumes, lighting, sound..etc etc.
Afterwards, I'm planning to go around Europe a bit with my best friend and hopefully land in New York and Montreal before flying back home. I remember a few years ago I was ambitiously planning to go on a HUGE European backpacking trip by myself but that fell through as I never got around to working and saving enough money for it.
But now I finally get to backpack and hopefully travel around Europe :)
Sometimes I also think about living on an organic farm and/or vineyard in the south of France or in Italy, where my only concern should be whether I've fed my goats, or whether I need to head into the local market and get some ingredients that I'm not currently growing in my garden. I would really like to try WWOOFing or something similar, and learn more about agriculture and cooking organic foods.
AHHH the travel bug has just been rekindled.
