[Gil-Galad]

Hello my friends.

Five years.

It has been five years since my brother introduced me to the site. I just want to say that this place is the longest website i have ever been apart of, and i have the feeling that i have left a certain 'Gil-Galad Impression' on the site. i just want to say thanks for being a place that if i am ever in the mood for somewhere to get away all the idiocy's of todays world, here is one place.


Now gentleman(and gentleladies), down to business.

How do we kill Superman.

uh i mean.

Gil-Galad's Grand European Adventure!

As some of you may have known, i am at the age of 18, and soon to start my year at university by this fall. i have always wanted to travel, and i now have the means and times to bring that plan into reality. I shall be travelling with a friend in the summer and i have started this thread to update my travels and post my route of my journey's.

Phase I

My journey shall begin in London England, where i shall be staying at Portsmouth in a house with a fellow i work with. from there the plan is to go northward to scotland for a week. then back to Portsmouth, it shall be our homebase during the travels. from there over to the emerald isle for another week or two.

that is phase one of the plan. my original plan was to encompass france, italy, austria, germany, but i have been able to see the UK as possible.

Phase II

Myself being the restless spirit that i am, i would like to go to northern France next, visit Normandy and Paris and work my way to Belgium and Holland. i would like to go into northern Germany and even northwards to Denmark to visit/harass Rune.

Phase two is the rest of europe, which i would like to spend perhaps 3-4 weeks in this phase.

Phase III

This is the return home part. depending on how my budget is going, we may travel back to France and back to Portsmouth, then make our way back home. If not then i'm sure the airport at Copenhagen would be nice to visit.




The main purpose of this thread is too update my fellow downers on my location and hope to share the experience i am going to enjoy.

Being two students travelling, we will be under a budget and will probably be looking for all the hostels we can find. I am trying to avoid asking for this, but if you want to see the Gil-Galad in real life and is able to provide a room for the night or even a day of sight-seeing, then i will share my stories and will always be in your debt. heck, i'll throw in a free picture with me.

As of now, i am in the planning phase, i will post my updates here to help you guys (and myself) keep track of the plan and layout for where i am going.

thanks again,

the ever-lovable Gil-Galad
