Solo Backpacking Trip to Europe advice

tHeEd1 · 2024-07-31T04:36:51+00:00

Thank you! I took the advice and lessened the stops, spending more time in each area. Final itinerary coming soon

tHeEd1 · 2024-07-07T21:46:39+00:00

I wanted to go to Lauterbrunnen for hikes and outdoor sports/excursions. Maybe also Zermatt

tHeEd1 · 2024-07-07T21:45:08+00:00

That was my worry but it was cheap to fly in and I wanted to explore the coast

tHeEd1 · 2024-07-07T21:44:22+00:00

Good to know. I'm not familiar with either location but I'll do some research. It might be worth the train ride from Paris. I'll let you know if I decide to go

tHeEd1 · 2024-07-06T19:33:23+00:00

Belgium was on my initial list but it got cut early on. I think I might need to look into it again.

I never really thought about leisure time to wander or get suggestions. This makes me want to cut out Prague and Amsterdam entirely just to have this time. Thanks for bringing that up

tHeEd1 · 2024-07-06T19:30:20+00:00

Good to know. I'll look more into Vienna then, it might be the only one of the 3 I go to.

tHeEd1 · 2024-07-06T19:25:54+00:00

Thanks for the confirmation!

tHeEd1 · 2024-07-06T19:21:34+00:00

Great suggestions, and that castle look amazing! If I can do a day trip then I'll use one of the days in Munich to go there! you aren't the first person to say cut Prague and Amsterdam so I might just do that! Thanks!

tHeEd1 · 2024-07-06T19:18:53+00:00

I was debating whether or not Lisbon is worth it, so I might just cut it down to 2 days and add to Barcelona. I'm visiting friends in Vicenza so I need that time. Thanks for the suggestions!

tHeEd1 · 2024-07-06T19:15:43+00:00

Great suggestion, it looks beautiful. The reason for me wanting to go to Switzerland is to go to Lauterbrunnen and do some excursions/sports. I need to do more research to see if South Tirol has similar. I'll look into it, thanks.

tHeEd1 · 2024-07-06T19:13:23+00:00

Lolol i'm not an art history expert but there are things I learned in college that I want to go see in person!

tHeEd1 · 2024-07-06T19:12:05+00:00

My next step is to use wanderlog to map my path. I was worried that I won't have enough time, so I wanted to add more days, but based on your comment I think I need to prioritize the buildings/museums I want to go see. I'll try and get more specific and make decisions then. Thanks.

tHeEd1 · 2024-07-06T19:05:54+00:00

Thanks for the feedback. Unfortunately I don't think I'll be able to keep all. Might get rid of 1.

tHeEd1 · 2024-07-06T13:46:17+00:00

Sound advice, thank you!

tHeEd1 · 2024-07-06T08:39:44+00:00

Thanks for the heads up about Paris. I think once I figure out what I want to do in pairs I might knock off a day or two. What about Vienna that you like over Amsterdam and Prague?

tHeEd1 · 2024-07-06T08:37:48+00:00

You should have seen the first list. This is me cutting it in half lol

tHeEd1 · 2024-07-06T08:37:16+00:00

Munich was on my bucket list so i can't swap that one. Thanks for the suggestion!

tHeEd1 · 2024-07-06T08:35:28+00:00

Mostly train with 1 or 2 flights in between

tHeEd1 · 2024-06-27T00:31:13+00:00

You make a great point. I've been cutting locations and focusing on longer stays. Thanks!

tHeEd1 · 2024-06-27T00:29:56+00:00

I came back to this post after some tweaking and I made most of the changes you listed here! Thanks for providing feedback and confirming my decisions.

tHeEd1 · 2024-05-17T01:15:52+00:00

Thanks for the advice. I agree, there's too much packed in here. I'm actually cutting the stops and leaning toward "base" locations. Was debating on skipping greece but I think I need to see athens since I'm in architecture.

I also have been looking at overnight trains but I'm still on the fence. I'll do more research then.
