Odd question i wanna know , cause i`m gettinga huge settlement check from a crash in like amonth close to 30 grand
i wanna spend 10 15 grand in europe just going through seeing EVERYTHING,
from london, to rome"I always wanted see the vatican and so on" to amsterdam, to scotland to france and so on...
Is this possible to go with this much and do whatever?
just wondering, cause before college starts in august i wanna go for like a month straight with a buddy of mine...
Any of you guys have ideas on the price you think?

Funny you ask that
cause that is my ultimate vacation
I dream about it all the time
I know for a fact I could do Europe with 10k
for a months vacation
Hell, I could do that with one hand tied behind my back and battery acid being poured in my eye sockets. If you got this chance to go. Do it now, rather than later. Lucky:thumbsup: I wish I could go.
One more thing, if you are thinking about doing it for sure. Buy your airline tickets NOW! It will save you a ton of money. Which you could use on much more entertaining items:pimp: :rasta: :smokin:

Sounds awesome dude. Do you really live in Silicon Valley (US?) Otherwise the air-fare and exchange rate might be a damper.

Can be done but you'd be well advised to come to the UK first, simply as its themost expensive place for you to visit. You can thank Mr Bush for that (whta is it at the moment? About £1=$1.82?(=)

my french teacher's younger sister went to Europe the year she got done with college. she took a friend too, and they saved alot of money by sleeping on the train instead of getting a hotel room every night.
they also traveled through all of Europe following the trainline, i'd suggest doing that, since the crime rate in Europe is so much lower.

Check out the inter rail tickets. You can go around europe for a month on less than 2000 dollars I'm sure lol. I plan to do it sometime in the near future. Just depends on the areas you visit, you shouldn't be too ambitious because there is no wasteland in the middle like the US, every country is different and sometimes the smallest are the best and each one deserves some time. Make sure you go to Austria, Czech Rep, Slovenia I heard is great too. Croatia, Hungary, Holland. You should go during the summer because you'll find plenty of young europeans doing the same thing, travelling around and enjoying hte summer festivals

Definitely want to go with the Eurorail pass. That should cover all your transportation from country to country while your there. Also, check into hostels cause they can save you a grip of money and as already mentioned, schedule your longer rides on the trains at nights so you can sleep.

yeah, i'm planning something like this in the next couple of years. deff. go with the month long eurail pass. that way you can skip around without solid plans. if you want to stay somewhere longer, you're not restricted by reserved tickets.
germany, italy, france, belgium, switzerland, and of course the netherlands are all on my checklist.

I think backpacking would be your best option. Buy tickets to other countries when youre bored of them, and you have the freedom to go wherever you want.
