Hey, I am currently a student in Umea, Sweden. I am planning trip for Europe early next year or in December. Its really flexible. Its just that i need to use a 30 day Eurail pass or Eurolines pass, because thats the cheapest afaik. Forgive me for saying that on a tourist savvy forum but i am really not interested in food, culture, natural scenaries for that matter. I am more of an academic who wants to study history, architecture, remnants, and values in general. Having said that, i also need to hop quickly from places to places because 1. I have only 30 days on my eurail pass 2. If i can’t see that in one day i don’t need to see that. I would rather spend day watching around and photography and evenings reading about history.

It might be a little too quick with so many places to watch but i think i can manage. Do you have feedback or comments on my itinerary. I might even go to two places a day assuming you don’t need to travel whole day to get to next country in Europe. I plan to keep my food with me or will cook enough for days to come in some youth hostels i might book if i wanted to stay at all.

Questions:

1. What is the best method of carrying money with you ? credit cards? travellers cheque or cash?
2. Does that really get tiresome? because i only need one night sleep to get me going for three more days.
3. If you look at my itinerary, any suggestions to which places i should go there?

I would really appreciate your feedback. Feel free to laugh because my apparent feasibility is minimum but i like risks as long as its not devastating
