Introduction
This guide was written by the Eurostudents 1992, not to replace the two year old Hitchhikers Guide to the Bay Area, but to continue the idea and add some more detailed information. (Although the answer will always be "42"). First idea is to help you as the new Eurostudent to get started as fast as possible by making available the information we collected. However, everything might change and of course will change. Therefore, parts of this guide might be not valid. On the other hand, this guide might be the start collection of ideas and stories interesting to every student who comes over for an internship to the USA. Therefore, feel free to copy this guide and forward it to whom you want.

The Eurostudents 1993 were glad to have lots of valuable information
when arriving at HP. It was the first time that the information
from the last generation of Eurostudents was passed before the
arrival in USA.
It is our aim to extend this information flow to the next generation
of Eurostudents to make it as easy as possible for them to get
started and enable them to make their own experiences. Most of
our articles have been written in the last weeks of our stay,
so we were able to add a lot of new tips to the existing ones.
We wish our successors as much fun as we had, not only in having
a great time but also in passing the newly gained experience to
the hopefully coming successors:

We, the EuroStudents 1995 can only reinforce the opinion of the
1993 Euros. The EuroStudent guide really helps with getting started
in the US with work and private life. Therefore we want to keep
it up-to-date and add some of our experiences. Hopefully the future
EuroStudents follow this model too in making it rich with information.
This new version of the guide will be on the World Wide Web, too.
Just search for "EuroStudents". We all wish everybody
who comes behind us a great time in the US, a lot of fun and no
ants in the kitchen!

This bunch of papers is really worth to read it. It is of course not a replacement for your own experience in the United States. We just want to say "Thank You" to the EuroStudents in former times for writing this valuable guide.
This year we made some major changes concerning the Car-Rental-part
of the EuroGuide. We also added some new articles and updated
many chapters with new prices and supplementary information. Therefore
you will have probably the best "tool" to prepare yourself
and to make this internship as wonderful as it was for the

The EuroStudents of 1997 didn’t have to change much in this guide. It’s a very valuable “book” to read. This year we finally managed to add a chapter about Santa Rosa, since we heard that all the former students there were not able to do it :). Next thing was the change of area codes: Area code 415 was split up into 415 (San Francisco) and 650 (the rest). So if you still find a telephone number outside of The City with an area code of 415... then we missed it. Also we introduced after “I-don’t-know-how-many-years” an official EuroStudent song, you’ll find the lyrics somewhere in the back part of this guide. And - of course - we also want to say ‘Thank You’ to all the former generations of EuroStudents for collecting all this information and we hope that the next year Euros will continue working on this guide. Helan går!
