It would be so much easier if my trip to Switzerland this summer were all-expenses paid instead of my fighting with websites to book accommodation and whatnot (of course the hostels were unable to fullfill my needs, so hotels on the not quite so astronomically expensive end of expensive are sought, as expected… but whatever).… Continue reading Writer's Block: Ticket to ride
