I choose to travel with train, because it's cheaper than plane (in high season). I booked my ticket online and received it by mail in 3 days. For all those who never booked anything online - it was my first time too and it didn't hurt at all :)
So, the plan for the D-day ... my family will drive me to Ljubljana, from where my train to Berlin departs. It's an 16 hours drive with 2 transfers, first in Villach and second in Munchen. Yep, a long one, but I will survive - as long as I have my camera, books and food :)
What am I actually going to do in Berlin for 3 months? My host family has one baby - 5 months old daughter and I'm gonna be their Au Pair. Her mommy works part-time and for those few hours they need me to look after their little girl. 4 hours/day babysitting + some help in household and the rest of the day is my free time.
For now, my plans for spending free time are just exploring new places in a company of my camera :) And meeting cool people. And trying new stuff. And lot of other things. But most of all - enjoying my life. :)
My biggest fear about this trip? I see myself taking the wrong train in Munchen and ending up somewhere in French Alps instead of in Berlin :)))
