Pictures and stories of my exchange experience at Utica College in Utica, NY and the events leading up to it. Sarcasm, hyperbole and artistic fiction is to be expected.

Plane tickets booked!
So yesterday I booked my tickets to America. I decided to book them as quickly as possible to get the cheapest available tickets. I'll be flying to NYC on my birthday, which is on august the 20th. First I thought it would be smart to just buy a ticket on some cheap airline and maybe have a layover somewhere in Europe.
However as I was ordering my tickets I began to notice that these cheaper airlines have a lot of delightful hidden costs everywhere. I'm not going to mention the airline in question Norwegian but it turned out that I'd have to pay for things like proper food and luggage separately. Like who in their right mind would travel to New York City with no luggage? Good luck explaining that one to the authorities. Anyway I decided to not be bothered with any of that and booked non-stop flight both ways with Finnair. I prefer non-stop flights because it is just so much easier. I also tend to be a lil' lazy which is another reason I chose to fly non-stop. One thing which would have been better on the other airline is that I would have flown with the new Boeing 787 Dreamliner which would have been awesome. But I guess an Airbus A330 will have to suffice. Hey, at least I'll be in New York City relatively early, albeit jet lagged.
