Welcome to Europe! Bonjour! Hola! Ahoj! Ciao! Salut! This year the Redstone Diary would like to invite you and your fellow travelers to explore the vast realms of this great continent, past and present, real and imagined. Join us on a journey through time and space, from Goethe to Gothenburg, from Cocteau to the Czech Republic, and from Bardot to Bologna. Take this opportunity to exercise your right of freedom of movement. Data roaming charges are abolished, no ID is required, and insurance and healthcare are covered. Europe is not just a place. Europe is a state of mind.
