As you may or may not know, I had the last week off of school. Fall break came laden with expectations, as people went off to Stockholm, Dublin, London, Paris, Amsterdam, Berlin, Barcelona, Rome, Naples, Istanbul, Sicily, the Cinque Terre, Madrid, Marrakesh. Yeah, major cities or tourist destinations. And our plans had started off big: we were going to get Balkans EuRail passes and head into Serbia, exploring Montenegro, Macedonia, Greece, Turkey, Bulgaria and Romania before heading home in only 10 days, in the ambitious way that plans always begin.We then had everything fall through. The flight we'd booked home from Bucharest? Canceled. The EuRail pass? Impossible to get. A week before fall break began, we had only a bus ticket to Novi Sad, Serbia, and big expectations.
