I guess if I head into a place with the intention of doing work then I'd probabyl aim to get a single room. But then again, I prefer working in cafes and common areas so having my own room probably wouldn't make me more productive. I forgot to mention that I spent $1000 on a kick ass camera lens too so maybe I'm better off than I thought. I nearly bought another wicked lens in HK for $900 but fought the urge. Camera stuff seems to be joining art supplies as my weakness. Christine I’m going the way of the private room myself but am torn because dorms are a great way to meet people.

(grin) Of course, if you ever make it the the states, we'll have to go out drinking together... which kills that plan. Congradulations on being so little in the red! And with getting some more of your sites up you should start seeing some black soon. I’m with Frank – watch the liver!!! (grin)

I always book a private room, because I figure I can get more work done that way. Thoughts? How is sleeping in the dorm?

You can easily modify your spending habits if you have to. So the only thing to worry about is, actually, your liver. ;-) Frank Hi Kirsty, I find it impressive, too.
