Where are we?

What’s going on?

First Coffee in Barcelona

After 1436 km on the road we are in Barcelona. We arrived and actually we have no idea where to go to. Well, easy!

Vil found a parking space and now he sit at http://vi-d-art.com/ and enjoys his first coffee in Barcelona.

The coffee is good, the guy behind the counter speaks absolutely no English or French, but he is very nice and, most important, the WIFI is free. 🙂

Now it’s time to think about where to go and what to do. Vil checked his emails, a few answers to his applications, nothing concrete, but there is interest. He checks all job boards and applies for more jobs.

Later we need to find a safe spot to sleep. We can’t stand in town, that’s not allowed and way too dangerous.

We will drive a bit out of town and see. Maybe we find a place with free WiFi and a toilet near.

Frauenweiler Germany

Today we are in Frauenweiler / Germany, fixing the last stuff and getting ready for the departure. Victor is ready, he is oiled and filled up with gas. I have a last nap on the sofa and Vil is busy packing stuff and writing the BLOG. We received our first donation via PayPal, Jupieeeee. Five Euro for a beer or a few croquettes for me.

What to do?!

So we needed to decide what to do.

“The only wrong thing to do is nothing.”

Option one

We can accept the situation and give up. We can sit on the sofa all day, play video games, have long walks and at the end of the month receive just enough financial support to stay barely alive.

Option two

We don’t accept to slowly rot on the sofa and find another option ourselves.

While browsing the internet and looking for any useful information Vil found a clause in the welfare agreement, which allows him to leave Germany for up to four weeks and still receive his payments. This might be a way to get out of  Germany and look for a job somewhere else.

I think we will take option two and search for a job somewhere else. Where?
