Europe- Footloose and fancy FREE? Part II

Hello again everyone! If you don't remember me from my previous post, I had asked if it were still possible for a young traveler to make in in Europe on an absolute rock-bottom budget. After many replies and helpful tips, I did my best to save a bit more money, and now have a 30 euro/night budget for our trip. I'll be in Europe for 71 days, and am super excited to see what trip has in store for me. I just wanted to check back in and let everyone know that I'm heading out on 5/15 (Tomorrow!). I'll be back in late July, and I'll make another post to let everyone know how it went! Wish me luck, and safe travels to you all! ---------Nate---------

Nate: Good luck and best wishes on this. Maybe you'll get a chance to log on during the trip and let us know how you're doing.

Hi Nate. We remember you. When I was in Europe, I did not get enough Vitamin C there. I recommend : bring with you a jar (plastic) of Acerola Extract Powder. A good brand name is "now". Put one tea spoon of the powder in water to drink, each day. And bring a tent. If you do not have enough money for a hostel every night, or if you are not able to go to a hostel every night, you could sleep outside in a tent. (Some travelers, your age, camped at places that were not camp sites, for free). - Bon voyage. Buon viaggio ! Auf Wiedersehen.
