europe

over an 18 month period, i have 5 offers for international travel. a mediterrainean jaunt with my roommate fell through, but i just book tickets for barcelona with my sister this summer! we nearly killed each other at times when we shared a roof in fargo, so i'm interested to see how this works out. other int'l offers still on the table:

• japan: long shot to visit someone i hardly know, but would probably take me in.
  
• italy: my game group wants a fall trip to rome and venice. they sucessfuly broked a trip 3 years ago, it's got strong potential.
  
• peru: i've wanted to go for 5 years and my parents suddenly became interested last month. visiting a friend, my dad became captivated with beautiful pictures he had on the wall. "where is this magical place?" "peru."
