so many places in Europe and so little
time to see them all you're trying to
decide where you should be going on your
trip to Europe it's hard
I get it I've been there so today I'm
gonna help you choose where you should
go on your trip to Europe also have a
free gift for you at the end of this
video so make sure you watch it all the
way to the end it's going to help you
with your planning even more so what is
your budget like if you want to visit
the most popular cities in Europe like
London Paris or Rome but I'm hoping to
travel on a shoestring budget you're
gonna be eating beans for every single
one of your meals while you're traveling
those places are expensive to visit so
keep that in mind if you are budget
conscious and take note that Eastern
Europe is typically a lot cheaper than
visiting Western hero
so think about exploring that area more
than Western and even if you're not
traveling on a backpacker budget keep in
mind that prices for accommodation and
travel will vary significantly depending
on what time of the year you're
traveling how long will your trip be no
matter how long it is I need to stress
that you cannot do it all and if you try
you will get stressed and worn out and
you won't even enjoy your trip so what's
the point so even if you have a long
list of places that you want to see on
this trip you're gonna have to be
realistic and not over booked yourself
as a rule of thumb I always say that you
should spend at least two nights in
every destination that you visit and
that way you don't get worn out we waste
less time traveling on buses and trains
and you actually get to explore each
place that you visit properly although I
would say there are a lot of places in
Europe that you need it more than two
nights to explore but you get the point
do you want to visit the popular spots
or go off the beaten path I'm team off
the beaten path not only because I like
to discover in explored places that
aren't as well known I also like to stay
away from the crowds in the selfie
sticks however I know that's not
everybody's travel style and there are
some absolutely incredible sights to be
seen in the most popular destinations
including London hello but when you're
planning your trip decide if you want to
see all those world famous sights or if
you want to get off the beaten path
because that will help you to decide
ultimately where you're going to go
figure out what kind of trip this is
going to be do you
I lay by the pool in the beach all day
do you want to experience the best of
Europe's nightlife do you want to see
all the sights and the cities or do you
want to just relax in the countryside
knowing what kind of trip you want this
to be will help you to decide where you
want to go for example if you want the
beach and you want the Sun Croatia would
be a great place to visit however if
you're looking to see some of the world
famous sights you'd probably like to
visit somewhere else consider focusing
on one country or one region of Europe
when I went travelling after I graduated
college I didn't plan out my route very
well and we ended up spending a lot of
time sitting on trains or on airplanes
or at the airport instead of exploring
that's because I was hopping all around
Europe instead of sticking to one
specific area so that's what I recommend
that you do stick to one area which
means you'll have less time traveling
you'll spend less on transportation and
if you decide to stick to one country
you'll have to deal with only one
currency and one foreign language unless
you go to Switzerland there's like four
different ones finally okay it's time to
choose where you're actually going to go
so go ahead and sit down and make a list
of all the places that you'd like to
visit on your trip then narrow it down
to what you can realistically visit so
remember my two-night rule and
everything else I just talked about when
you're making that list if you're
sitting there being like oh my gosh that
was just so much information I still
