For those that live as far away as I do (both geographically and economically speaking), two months is near enough so that we need to start thinking about plane tickets, lodging and the like. The GBP to BRL (Brazilian Reals, the cutest currency ever, it comes in many flavours, I mean colors) is 1 GBP = 3.2 BRL, which is better than I though but still as expensive as it can be. The minimum wage here is 465 BRL a month, so you see what I mean by expensive travels. Since I am already spending a buckload of money in plane tickets to europe, I rather stay a long time than a short one, so I am thinking about trying to catch some of Edinburgh Festival and maybe stay for august. So I am deciding where will I stay. With hotels such as travelodge starting at GBP 89, staying for a month would require me to leave my liver and some other good body parts at the cashier. I am considering staying in a Hostel, there are hostels starting at GBP 9 per night, so that might be the key for my month in scotland. Anyone here decided where they will be staying? Any pointer or reference? I am considering this place http://www.smartcityhostels.com/ it is not too far from Dynamic Earth. Also if anyone is arriving early and want to get drunk, I mean, share good cross cultural moments over unspecified beverages, we should talk! :D In a final remark, what about the kilts?
