The easy part.

Since I came home, people have been asking me if it´s been hard, traveling like this. I always say it´s really easy, in Europe atleast. It doesn´t have to mean you take advantage of someone, which many people assume, but that you can manage really cheap throughout EU if you want to. Ofcourse it´s different for people from different countries, cultures even. Different demands on Visa, different prejudices. But it is doable.

No, traveling and surviving like this haven´t been hard. It´s been the easy part. Hitchhiking, no biggy. Finding a place to stay, somewhat difficult if you´re in the last minute. Food, there´s a lot for those who´s not afraid to be bold or get their hands dirty... or their pride a little bruised.

No. The difficult part isn´t the surviving part... but the social part, of it.

It has been difficult, not to survive, but to spend all the hours of everyday with the same person, whithout avoiding conflict. It has been difficult, annoying, exhausting, hurting... and even though there is lot of love involved, human relations never work perfectly...

So yes, it has been hard. Really hard sometimes. Maybe we all needed a brake...
Yes. we all do. Sometimes... and that has been the hardest.
