When I applied to graduate school, I was warned that it would not matter where I lived because I almost certainly would not be able to have time to enjoy it. The first two weeks has encouraged monastic solitude and as I sign up for classes and look at the syllabi, I see it will only get more acute. However, I can't help but think that being able to take a walk around the block and see the magnificent Parliament building, be greeted by the lions of the Chain Bridge or get a beer and sit by the Danube, that it doesn't hurt to be a monk in a beautiful place.

Beautiful details like this litter the buildings here |
beautiful photos! love! I'm glad it's starting to not be as hard. I believe you when you say it's scary. I'd be scared too. That's why we're all living vicariously through your brave adventurous spirit. :) it looks gorgeous and inspiring.
