Highs and Lows

Krakow is clean, safe, and walkable and my hostel here is pleasant and comfortable.

I am bored out of my mind.

Right now, I'm scheduled to stay in Krakow until Friday at which time I have tickets for a night train to Budapest. I have several issues with this itinerary:

1. I don't really want to spend two more days in Krakow because although it's lovely and the people in my hostel are nice, I'm ready to move on.
2. I do not want to take another night train. Ever.
3. My train doesn't leave until 22:30 but I have to check out of my hostel at 10:00 which leaves me with over 12 hours to wander the city and it will almost certainly be raining since I think it's rained every single day of my trip so far.
4. I am suddenly totally unexcited about going to Budapest.

That last issue is weird because I've wanted to go to Budapest for a really long time and I've heard nothing but good things about it but I'm starting to feel like if you've seen one Eastern European city, you've seen them all (which I don't think is actually true). The problem is that I already have hostels, trains, and flights booked for that time period. What I really want to do is just scrap the whole thing but I think I would lose a lot of money if I did that.

I also still haven't planned the last three and a half weeks of my trip and I have no idea what to do with that time.

Anyway, I'm feeling kind of frustrated today. Some of my hostelmates and I were talking last night about the highs and lows you experience when traveling solo. Today isn't the lowest of the lows but I'm definitely not feeling the greatest.
