The Slovak languageA small bit of practical advice: learn some basic vocabulary in Slovak :) E@I created a web site for learning Slovak. You can find a list of the most useful phrases here: http://slovake.eu/learning/intro/phrases During SES, you will be able to buy an Esperanto booklet entitled "Slovaka konversacio skize" (a sketch of Slovak conversation) at the book service. CaravanThere will be a communal voyage by train (a so-called “caravan”) organised coming from Switzerland through Germany and Austria, passing through Neuchâtel, Lindau, Passau, Linz, and Vienna, among other places. If there is sufficient interest, the caravan may also be joined in other German cities or in Strasbourg. This will be a longer but more fun and cheaper way to travel.
