Summary

Fifty-eight real stories from young travellers abroad offer the budget, independent, and youth traveller vivid first-person accounts of the countries and experiences of backpackers, students, and sojourners. Offering more than just travelling facts, this guide actually invites readers to see, taste, and experience European adventures - from sneaking into Rome's Coliseum to running with the bulls in Pamplona, Spain. These backpackers relate experiences that people with suitcases and reservations wouldn't necessarily experience, including sleeping in streets and hostels, 24 hours of clubbing on
