we’re planning a trip for the month of June 2011
we wanna go to ireland (dublin), london, amsterdam, paris, barcelona, italy(florence, rome, naples) and greece(athens, the islands).
we don’t have a solid itinerary yet, however we wanna spend a couple days in each place, and stay in hostels.

we’re planning four weeks, and a biudget of 3000$ (all expenses) .
does this sound reasonable?

the 3000$ would include airfare, which is just under 800$

To do this trip on $2200 you’ll have to be really frugal. This is a rough estimate, but I imagine you’ll spend $350-$450 getting from place to place, leaving you about $1800 or $70 a day.
