Prologue

This blog is set up, so every one now can be part of trip organizing and participate in decisive discussions. As the main objective is getting most out of a long trip around Europe after the final project under a economic costs, a traveling protocol is pre-established by traveling through the Eurail Global Pass. The pass allows us to travel 10 days within 2 months between the following countries:

1. Austria
2. Belgium
3. Croatia
4. Czech Republic
5. Denmark
6. Finland
7. France
8. Germany
9. Greece
10. Hungary
11. Ireland
12. Italy
13. Luxembourg
14. Netherlands
15. Norway
16. Portugal
17. Romania
18. Slovenia
19. Spain
20. Sweden
21. Switzerland

Let us brain storm of destinations wherever you think is interesting and suitable to our budget and time constraints. Since we are allowed to travel for ten days, the ideal number of destinations is approximately 10-15 cities where capture the dynamic essences of European historical, cultural, nature and city life styles.

Topics of discussion we need to through are suggested as following:

1. Objectives - what we want out of this trip; history, culture, nature, shopping, business?
   
2. Destinations - where and in which order our objectives can be achieved?
   
3. Date and length of the trip - when should we start this, and for how long?
   
4. Estimated costs - how much money we need for deployment?
   
5. Number of participants - who want in?
6. Other requirements - visa, accommodation, tickets, backpacking?
