Resolved Question: Getting from Japan to Austria on a budget?

Resolved Question: How do I switch to an international cell phone plan?

I am on a Verizon family plan right now but I will be moving to Prague for 2 years and I wasn't sure what I should do about my phone plan. I have a Blackberry Tour which is a world phone so it should work while I'm in Europe. Verizon has an international plan that you can use but I feel like this might be a more expensive option given that I'll be away for so long. I have also heard that you can get Verizon to unlock the phone, which I presume would allow me to use a different carrier's sim card (mine says both Verizon and Vodafone on it). It is pretty important that I have data and email while I am there so I'd prefer an option that enabled that a relatively low price. I've looked through the Verizon website and a number of other questions on this subject but I can't come to a definitive conclusion. Any suggestions would be really helpful. Thanks. more

Resolved Question: I`m travelling to Italy alone and don`t know Italian, will that be a big problem?

Hey! I'm nineteen years old and in the middle of doing a tour of Europe. Currently I'm with my friend, so when we went to Prague and Paris I wasn't that concerned. But I've decided that I want to do Italy on my own and I'm a bit worried about the fact that I know absolutely no Italian. Has anybody else travelled to Italy only speaking English? Do many Italians know English, or will it mainly just be in the information and tourist offices? more

Resolved Question: If you've visited London, Paris,Prague etc.-does it get so tiring everything starts looking the same?

It just seems like so much to do and see within 2 weeks, am starting to feel overwhelmed!! LOL xD Yes, we definitely want a vacation in Europe--particularly in Paris. But somehow hopping on ferries, short flights and all that does not seem too relaxing doing it constantly. It feels more appealing--atleast when meditating and fantasizing b4 purchasing air fare, making reservations---just taking it easy, taking in one location--like Paris. Admiring the architecture, cobblesstone streets and even the roof tops eye level from the room to take some gorgeous snapshots during dusk and dawn. Simply walking down the streets up and down the streets to find hidden surprises--like an old church, an offbeat path or something pleasurably unexpected like a silly dressed up poodle. I don't want to feel so rushed "to see as much as I can."--Just see several museums, take a dinner cruise and perhaps attend one of those delicious gourmet food tours {between all the yummy cafe's we'll be eating at for lunch daily :o) So in your experience, do you find relaxing a day, then taking a tour the next was more relaxing?? OR did you prefer and enjoy hopping everywhere as fast as you could to absorb each corner for a half a day and go on to the next thing? Is there anything in Paris you wished you'd seen b4 your departure? more

Resolved Question: Please help me with translating this from english to asl. thanks?

If I won a million dollars I would be so very happy. The veery first thing I would do would be to buy a house for my mom... cash. no mortgage. It would'nt have to be a very big house, but it would have to have a lot of storgage for my mom and I have a lot of "stuff". There would be money left over. So I would buy a car for me. Not an expensive one but one that was in good shape. Maybe a VW convertible. The third thing would be to set money aside to pay the tuition so my mom could get her masters degree. i would want to also put money away in savings. I would have to bufget the money very carefull but I gurure I couold save at least half for a rainy day. The balance of the money would go to charity, perferable to a family with kids who need it. -------------------- I have had many perfect vacations and I would love to repeat them. I have eben to Hawaii, alaska, nw york, pennsylvania, the grand canyon, mexicon, sedona, florida and china. My next "perfect" vacation would be one of two places. Manhatton (new York) to see more broadway plays, and vistit the museums ( i was young when i was last there ) I love the city and would consider living there when I am older. and because I was born in germany, I ould like very much to spend a few week there. i would see the german hospital where I was born, visit the barn were my moms horse lived and dies, vista all teh places I visited when i was very little ( and now cant remeber). I would tour bamberg where my mom dad and I lived. I would also want to drive to prague since I was 2 the last time I was there and all i have are the pictures.

Resolved Question: Can you help? ..................................?

I was in Prague a few years ago and I visited the Terezenstadt Prisoner of War Camp just outside of Prague.

Resolved Question: Why is Obama TRYING to WOO European SUPPORT for his budget when EUROPEANS are NOT the ones he REPRESENTS?

Glad to see he is more concerned about building up his European popularity while his budget tanks this nation into non-recoverable debt. Obama is planning to hold a town hall-style meeting at a sports arena in Strasbourg, France, European diplomatic officials said. And the White House is looking for a site in Prague for the first public foreign-policy speech of Mr. Obama's presidency, according to Petr Kolar, the Czech Republic's ambassador to the U.S. Turkish press reports say Mr. Obama's visit to Istanbul after the Prague summit will include a stop at the Hagia Sophia, a Byzantine-era church converted to a mosque under the Ottomans, and a stop at the national Sultan Ahmed Mosque. The emphasis on including public events, a deliberate nod to Mr. Obama's successful tour through Europe as a presidential candidate, stands in contrast to the divisions that have opened on policy since he took office. Czech Prime Minister Mirek Topolánek, who resigned on Thursday after an earlier parliamentary vote of no-confidence, this week called Mr. Obama's economic prescriptions "the road to hell." Paris and Berlin have been openly hostile to the U.S. president's calls for more fiscal stimulus. And his pleas for more troops for Afghanistan have given way to more modest calls for help in propping up Afghanistan and Pakistan's civilian governments.http://online.wsj.com/article/SB123811085174652889.html more
