Haze invades Europe Summer 2012
« on: January 05, 2012, 11:20:15 pm »
So this summer it looks like I'm going to be backpacking across Europe for about a month, from mid to late May into most of June.

I don't have much of a plan so far, but right now it looks like I would fly into Helsinki and Lodur would pick me up from the airport.

Places I'd like to visit: Helsinki, Stockholm, Tallinn, Istanbul, Amsterdam, Berlin, Frankfurt, Munich, Venice, Florence, Rome, Paris, Amsterdam, London, Barcelona and Lisbon.

I'm open to suggestions of other places to visit. There is a heavy emphasis on Germany and Italy because I lived in Germany 10 years ago, speak some German, and I am of Italian descent.

I do not plan on renting a car. I think I could make it around using public transport like trains, U-Bahns, busses etc.

I haven't figured out a budget yet, but I think my parents will help me out with plane tickets and I have about $2000 saved up in the bank.

Any tips, tricks, or suggestions on helping me saving money, places I need to see, how to get around most efficiently or anything else you can think of would be greatly appreciated!

Sounds like an epic idea. Not everyone does these kinds of things in their lives, as they rather choose to live like everyone else, lol.

I'll come back with some suggestions when I know them, lol.

nice haze :)
Me and my Brother are going to do something like that aswell :) We'll hold us to france, spain and italy though since we've lived in both germany and sweden.

are you sure that 2000$ is enough? i mean.. it may be if you're camping (but even that is expensive at some places), but if you're looking for hostels/hotels it is going to be very expensive.. and traveling with train and bus will cost you pretty much too.

Two friends of mine were backpacking through sweden last summer and they did that via hitchhiking. They said that it was cheap and interesting since you meet new people all the time.
I think it's forbidden in sweden though, but it might work for you in other countrys ^^

also: try to take a friend or brother/sister come with you, because it's much funnier and also easier to travel in new countrys when you're with someone else.

Good choice! May I also recommend Portugal? It was epic when I was there, although I was very young at the time, maybe 9 years old.

I have a a bit more saved up than that but I was hoping not to spend all of it, plus I have a job for the next few months too before the trip, so I'll make a little more. My Aunt and Uncle went to Italy in September and said there's some kind of cheap pass that applies to most EU transit. I'm gonna have to call her soon to figure out what that is.
I planned on staying with Lodur and I have friends in Germany, Belgium and Portugal but other than that I planned on finding cheap hostels and hotels. I might look into www.couchsurfers.org before I go though to see if there's anywhere I can stay for free or much cheaper.

My brother is too young to be able to handle the traveling/drinking I want to do unfortunately, and I haven't found a friend yet that can commit to going, so it looks like I'm going to do it by myself. But I think I'll be fine on my own, honestly. I lived in Germany from 2-12 years old and we traveled a lot so I think that gives me an advantage over the normal American backpacker.

Duh! It's not like I want to see anything historical, **** that. Let's party!

I'll buy you a beer if you come to Tampere. Or I can try to come and buy it for you in Helsinki.

Were you delighted with Newcastle's victory over Man Utd.?

This is cool too;

That Everton goal was crazy - so cruel though!

I'm actually a Sunderland boy, so I was more elated about us beating Man City.  ;D

Hey Alex, if I were you I'd definitely contact mfmr!
He travelled through most of Europe (pretty much everywhere except Spain/Portugal I think) for a couple of months last summer, also all by himself. If you're looking for tips and tricks, he's your source. ;)

Also, when you're in Holland I'd like to meet up and hang out, and if you're looking for a place to stay you're more than welcome at my place if you want. Not very close to Amsterdam though so don't think too much of it!

Ireland: Dublin is a must place, but i guess its tricky to go there.

Also i heard there is some package (my sister and her bf did) so that you can go through all europe free on trains for a months for a not to big fortune. If i understood it right you will pay cash/credit all around, that be expensive..

I'll try to plan Tampere into my schedule, I want to see as much as I can. Once I have a rough traveling schedule I will post it here.

Haha I didn't notice that obviously but I do smoke a lot of weed. Maybe it was subliminal.

Haha, they're not that great. But how far is that from London?

Good to know! I will asap. I wonder if he still frequents MSN.

I might just have to take you up on that offer. How far are you from Amsterdam by train?

I really did want to include Dublin but it's kind of out of the way, not sure if it's going to be feasible. I really want to try an authentic Guinness though, and Ireland does have a ton of cool old shit.

Could you possibly ask your sister about that? If that's what they did, it's probably the best option.

About 300 miles North... but Newcastle's waaaaay nicer. I don't doubt you'll fit in some great cities on the trip. Madrid and Lisbon are amazing if you fancy heading down that way too.

Yep, i'm pretty sure , where ever you go.. you'll find a place to crash within this community.

Sounds like a fun plan...

If you happen to move your ass to other cities in Estonia as well.. you have my couch!
