Currently, I am in Stuttgart, which cost way too much money to get to, way too much money for the hostel and could've been VERy expensive if I wasn't using this one site connecting drivers w hitchhikers. I actually DON't know how much that will cost but I'm assuming under 100 euros.... much cheaper than the train.. and hopefully cheaper than 60, which is price of the regional trains.
Its hard to enjoy this trip when I'm keeping myself under a budget. So when crappy things happen, my stomach just TWISTS. like having to pay way too much for the train (and wishing I had done the Rick Steves thing and bought a train pass... or just that I was german and could buy my tickets FAR in advance... 29 euro fares are such a tease).
There's really not that much to see in Stuttgart. I'm struggling to remember why I wanted to come here so bad. I did see the Mercedes-Benz Museum, which was kinda cool. Unfortunately, I somehow lost my wallet when I was leaving, didn't realize it till I had walked to an internet cafe 40 minutes away and so i HAD to backtrack BACK to the Mercedes Benz Museum. I looked where I ate lunch. Not there. I looked where I checked my bag. NOT THERE. So, my adrenaline is kinda pumping and I'm sweating heavily.. partially from speedwalking in the sun BACK to the museum and from nerves and trying to think of my other options. Then, it was at the information desk but unfortunately, the 100 euros in my wallet was gone. That's two days of my budget... roughly. Oh well.. c'est la vie. I'm just happy to have it
Oh and Munich was FANTASTIC. LOVEd Munich... and people in Frankfurt are extremely nice. Went there to drop off my 2 bags. SUPER nice people. oh my gosh.
