So what're you going to do now? She hasn't replied in two days, do you call her or just leave it be? If she doesn't mention the e-mail next time you see her, but is still friendly, do you ask if she got it and possibly make it awkward, or just forget it and miss the opportunity?
OK, I have news. So, after two days and still no answer, I can only conclude that she doesn't check her university e-mail address at all (being an Erasmus exchange student and all). With the preface of getting some photos of the event from the guy, we chatted a bit, so I'm cool with that, having made a good impression.

I casually asked him whether he has any phone number of hers, he said he doesn't. Then I thought, well WTF, if I don't stir the waters a bit, nothing is going to come out of it for sure. I told him that I sent her an email but she probably doesn't check her account, and bingo, he knew that she uses her own e-mail from her home university (told you so). Now, this is completely surreal IMO: I told him to remind her of checking her email if he sees her (which he does, everyday).

Good or whack? Who knows, at least there is a possibility of communicating. About the middleman problem, I don't think there's going to be any weird situations, this guy seems cool.

Extra added bonus: there might be a possibility of going again snowboarding together this weekend

Not all hope is lost. Even if nothing comes out of this story, the moral is: ALWAYS grab the chance to get the phone number when the moment is right. Otherwise you end up doing crazy stuff, such as those described herein
