Krina:
I figured I might arrive in Mainz earlier that afternoon, my friend has a new baby and she invited me to come over to check out her baby. It's weird, I just met her first baby and now she already has a new one. Anyhoo, I'll talk to my friend and see if she is free that day. I'll let you know about that, so we could either meet at the station or directly at the restaurant. Some googling provided me with the phone number of the Ban Thai, so I'll call them right now and reserve a table for the 27th for 8.15. Cool?

I guess I could also crash at my friend's place, so if I do that, I would probably leave my stuff at her place. I'll figure that out and let you know.

Edit: We have a reservation for the day and time I mentioned above.

negative creep:
Cool, then that's settled. Personally I'd prefer if we could meet at the station or maybe Schillerplpatz, if that's better, because I don't know where the Ban Thai is.

Krina:
Remember when we talked about the cool second hand records-and-book-shop on Kapuzinstraße in the Altstadt? I don't remember what it's called, but the Ban Thai its just a little down the road from there, on the left hand side. But if you feel unsure whether you will find it, I can just meet you at the Schiller (or at the station, depending on whether I'll be in town before meeting you or not). I'll let you know about that as soon as I've figured it out.

negative creep:
Yeah, I remember, and I haven't found that one either, yet. I hardly ever go "downtown", actually. I will try to find that next week, though, I'll let you know if I find it.

Krina:
Oh, I thought you had already been there. They have a lot of crap, but sometimes you find something good for quite cheap.

The Altstadt is really the nicest part of Mainz, I loved living there, although it could be quite noisy on Friday and Saturday nights when the drunk people went home from the pubs. I don't think drunk people realizse how much noise they're making! The KUZ is right around the corner, too, so it was quite nice to live right next to all the going out-locations. My flat was awesome, it was Altbau, the ceiling was 4 or 5 metres high and there was stucco and a chandelier in every room. My flatmate was quite capricious though and since he had been living there way before me, he had set up lots of rules about how things were to be done in the flat. But on the plus-side, he was quite fun to gossip and go out with, and he really treated me like a family member from the start. When we went out together, we would have the most fun by rating all the men on a scale from 1 to 10 (my flatmate was gay).

TL;DR: you should definitively move to the Altstadt, it's THE place to live in Mainz! I paid like 30 Euros more for rent then in the crappy student halls (where I didn't even have the Internet and a HORRIBLE flatmate), and it was absolutely worth it! Also, living with other people is for the most part more fun than living on your own (in my experience).
