3 - 4 months?!?!?! I'm SO jealous. I've never been able to afford anything that huge. Hope you get the most out of it. Try to visit Nurnberg if you're in Germany.
Cheers

I'm hoping to pull 3 months out of it.... With the car selling and money I save.. I should have up around $4000-5000.. and hopefully with it being winter.. and maybe I can find a few sofas to crash on... I can pull it out...

Hi and welcome from a fellow Georgian!
You will love Ireland and Portugal. Can't comment on Scotland though but I'm sure you'll love it too!

How'd you know?
Athens for school; Atlanta for family.
You can tell me where you but I don't know many places in S. Georgia.

You're right; I don't know Bainbridge! 
I'm at UGA; if you're ever up here you should say hi!
