Best of Europe – We’re Backpacking!

LONDON – BRUSSELS – AMSTERDAM – MUNICH (FUSSEN) – VENICE – ROME – FLORENCE – INTERLAKEN – NICE – BARCELONA – PARIS – LONDON

Hi Friends and Family!

I’ve been secretly planning an extended trip slated for June 2006 designed originally for my friends and I. But when cash was not flowing for most, G and I decided to take Europe on our own! His first trip out of the country, ever! I plan to make it an experience to remember. Armed with a 3 week Eurailpass, we are hitting up, what we call, the best of Europe, sampling superb cultures and tasty morsels along the way. Below is a briefing of where we plant to go and a bit about what we’re plan to do while there. Changes and more to come. Enjoy!
