Hungary, Czech Republic, Poland, and Germany: 20 Days in Eastern Europe

Sunday, June 20, 2010

The countdown continues - less than 24 hours

Guten Tag All!

The pressure is on! With less than 24 hours until our departure from the Charlotte Airport in N.C. I believe it's safe to assume that my peers are making their list and checking them twice. I too am doing the same.

We are scrambling to finish packing, complete homework assignments, make our last phone calls before our cell phone bills sky rocket due to International rates and perfect how to say Hello, beer and thank you in four different languages! (We do hope to add a few more words to our vocabulary along the way)

With trivial concerns aside, it is time that we redirect our focus from the classroom to our travels. I hope that you all will follow us as we begin our 20 day journey through Poland, Germany, Hungary and the Czech Republic to develop a deeper understanding of Communism - it's nature, and behavioral and institutional manifestations in society, polity and economy in East-Central Europe.

Let the adventures begin.....
