My European Backpacking Trip

[jw790s]

I am going on a trip all around europe in july. what were some places you would reccomend as must see's?

[brucybruce1]

@jw790s -So many different places its tough to say. You will want to do a lot of google.com research and decide for yourself. However, I would consider Paris & Rome an absolute must.

great pics, amazing locations, im headed back to europe for the second time this summer but this time im doing more backpacking budget style. im wondering what you ended up paying for transportation ... bus and train mostly

[cartht]

Hey did you travel alone

[brucybruce1]

Yes I traveled on my own. But I met a lot of great people along the way.

I'm happy now. I was worried because none of my friends want to pay to do this with me and I'd end up going alone... but if you can do it and have a good time, so can I. Thanks.

I heard it's a lot better for first time backpackers in Europe to travel alone because you get to see more and do whatever you want without having to worry about what your companion wants to do :p

You'll have more freedom

All this brings music to my ears. My trip is few months down the road, December. Is that a good time to go around Europe?

much appreciated. P

[brucybruce1]

Well anytime, in my opinion, is a great time to visit Europe. In December you won't have to fight the crowds however I would definitely bring a heavy snow/rain jacket. It will be cold especially in the northern countries. Let me know if you have any further questions

Im planning to go on a backpacking trip too and Im wondering how much money you spent in your entire trip. I'm thinking of going for 3 months.

[nuclearreactorman]

Depends how much style you want to do it in! The cheapest to be looking at is around £50 a day, but that is sleeping on trains etc. To be honest therer isn't really an upper boundary! The more money, the better.

[brucybruce1]

Sorry on my delayed response to your question. Yes, it really depends on in what way you want to travel. If you want to stay in hostels and buy food at the markets then you could get by on roughly $60 dollars a day. If you want to stay in Pensions and eat out more at restaurants, see the museums, and do some spontaneous things that always present themselves. Then I would budget closer to $90 or $100 U.S. dollars a day.

just wondering, how long did it take you to backpack across Europe including the south all to the Scandinavian countries?

[brucybruce1]

Thanks for your inquiry! It took me just under 4 months for my trip. You could easily do it a lot quicker as I had extra time and money so I was able to take a much more relaxed pace. Let me know if you have any more questions. Regards Bruce

this will sound dumb, but did i see the capitol building? (DC)

[brucybruce1]

No, it actually was a building in London just north of the Millennium bridge on the river Thames. It did however look very much like the Capitol Building. Thanks for your question!

[Rodaragao]

Hey Brucybruce1. Great video. I would like to know how many countries you visited in your trip, how long lasted your trip and how much you spent. Because I´m going to Europe next year, so I´m preparing myself for this. Keep in touch.
