Hints for travel planning

Between US and Debconf:

• Kayak finds quite cheap Iceland Express flights, BOS to SXF, departing Wed Jul 20
• I can get to Paris for the same price
• It's $100ish by train to get to Marseille, about 3.5h on TGV
• To get to Debconf, I could (?)

Between Debconf and Berlin:

• Germany is geographically between Debconf and Western Europe, so it doesn't make oodles of sense to go somewhere on Western Europe in between

About Marseille

• Easy to get there from Prague, supposedly
