I am currently feeling the sting of the post-vacation credit card bill. Aside from cash-advances in four different currencies in the past two months, in the past one month I have spent a lot of money on petrol. And in fact, I just returned the other night from another business trip that I really didn’t want to go on, in part because of the driving. In the past 5 weeks I have driven:
– to and from Stuttgart
– to and from Frankfurt
– to and from Munich
– to and from Frankfurt
– to and from Ulm
– to and from Frankfurt Hahn
– to and from Strasbourg
– through the Black Forest
– to and from Frankfurt
– to and from Zurich
– to and from Frankfurt
– to and from Ulm
That’s a lot of driving. Definitely approaching 4000 km. I would argue that this amount of driving is virtually unheard of in Europe.
