Sorry for the delay in posting. After 2 weeks of dedicated traveling - finding my way to 3 different countries and numerous different cities. After finding laundry services and showers more rarely than I have liked, I will be moving into my own apartment tomorrow. I am so excited about the prospect of my own place to live. Honestly, I have never lived truly alone in my life. Ever since I left home at 18 for college, I have always shared public areas with others - bathrooms, kitchens, etc. For the firs time, I will have all the rooms of my home to myself. Amazing. What am I going to do with all this freedom?!? :-)
I will be traveling on an overnight train to Cluj/Kolozsvar, through Arad. After not getting much sleep last night, this might be a challenge, to switch trains at 3 in the morning. But on the bright side, I am being met at the train station by my kind new landlord, Marc Pillich-Wright. He's going to take me to my new place and help me get settled in.
Then there is a Unitarian conference on Tuesday evening. I'm hoping to crash the party a little bit, and just show up to some of the events. There are a couple Unitarian folks who I knew from HDS who will be there, and I would love to hang out with them a little bit.
I was looking through my list of people who I know in Cluj/Kolozsvar this morning, and I had a momentary pang of fear, fear of being lonely in this place and without any institutional aid in meeting people. I am hoping that this worry doesn't pan out - worrying about ending up being isolated in this city without a way to really get integrated into a social network somehow. We'll see.
That's all for now.
