Name Backpacking through Europe

I don't specifically have a set itinerary for this trip. I am looking for someone to travel with before setting up a route. I am really open to what countries I visit during this 2-3 month period (just have a few 'must-sees' on the list).

I'm looking to do a lot of site-seeing (obviously) but would also like to go off the beaten path and go hiking and such. I also don't want to be doing something every single day. I want to be able to relax some days and not just cram every little thing in to everyday.

My price estimate is based on spending $70 a day for 2 or 3 months. This is probably more on the higher spectrum as far as spending just from talking to a few people that have backpacked.

Kaity Hammerstein I'm also from Cincinnati! I was hoping to travel to Europe this fall, but then decided central america might be cheaper. I'm still thinking about Europe tho - it would be great to have a group to travel with. Are you still planning this trip?

egypttravel Your first stop is a visit to the Pyramids of Cheops, Chephren and Mykerinus. Then, you will see the Great Sphinx, the head of a pharaoh with a lion's body, which dates back to the time of Chephren. You will also tour the Valley Temple, which belongs to the Pyramid of Chephren. This temple served definitely two functions, namely for the preparative purification of the king's body before its burial as well as the actual mummification process.

Holly Carpenter Hi, I think I am in the same boat as you as far as finding a person to set a route with. I budgeted for about 6 weeks but I will have no ties after graduation so I could stay longer. I was thinking about starting in Paris and ending with Oktoberfest . I noticed you have Turkey listed which is a must see for me so let me know if you think we might be able to merge travel plans, I'm hoping to have a partner to help plan and keep company while embarking on this adventure!

If you guys would like, I can send it your way once I'm done setting it up and we can all put our travel ideas/info into it and it might give us a better picture as to where we plan to be and when. I'm still in the process of working out my route. Anyways, if you're intrested let me know - it just may be a bit easier of a way to organize ourselves.
