Hey, I used to *live* and *study* there.....it's a good place....for
studying.....since there's nothing (and I mean *NOTHING*) else to do.
I took (believe it or not) LESS than one film in that city. Just
getting out of there fast was encouragement to finish your thesis....;)
Also, being a poor foreigner who couldn't afford to fly home for winter
break etc., I got to experience a real ghost town: over xmas, there was
I, and 3 squirrels, as inhabitants. I swear, if I hadn't bought enough
stocks to last a small war, I'd have died from hunger (or had to eat
the aforementioned three squirrels). each christmas.
I think I have a photo of those squirrels somewhere....
