Traveling with InteRail

There are a lot of countries in Europe that are worth to be visited but, unfortunately, not everyone have the chance to do it. One of the most common reasons that discourage people from traveling is money because, as everybody knows, flights, trains and transport are, in general, really expensive. That's why a different way of traveling is becoming more and more popular in Europe: InterRail.

InterRail connects several countries from Europe and buying a pass is a railway ticket, it allows unlimited rail travel in and between all participating countries for a certain period of time. More than thirty countries participate in this railway web, such as Spain, Germany, Italy, Sweden, Greece, France and so on. These way, people who want to visit more than a single country could do it, spending a few days in each country but saving much more money than traveling in a traditional way. 

Most of InterRail travelers are young people who are backpacking with friends, looking for knowing a few countries, partying on each of the stops and saving money. There are also adults and seniors who use InterRail but it's more usual to see people in their twenties traveling this way. 

People under 26 would have to pay 325€ for two weeks and 461€ for a whole month. 
Prices for adults over 26 are a little bit higher, 414€ for two weeks and 626€ for a month. 


The InterRail program launched in 1971 as InterRail 72 limiting to 21 or younger travelers and it covered twenty one countries of Europe, including Belgium, France, West an East Germany, Denmark, Hungary...

A New experience


From the last years, people all around the world search a cheaper way of traveling. Previously, it wasn't as easy as today, because nowadays you can find different tips for traveling for free or in a cheaper way by searching information on internet.
To prove that, i've been searching trustworthy pages on internet as if i want to go anywhere. In my research, i've found a blog where some people talks about their experiences traveling, using the transports they mention on it. Here you have the link of the blog where you can read about their trips at the same time they talk about their personal experience. For example one of them says : " I managed to save a few hundred dollars each time I’ve bought a rail pass". So, he or she talks about a personal moment at the same time that comments about the Eurail, (you can see it in the blog).

Traveling as a backpacker

Today, we are going to talk about a curious way to travel. Not many people are used to this method of traveling around different cities, but definitely is one of the most cheaper ones. 


The essence of backpacking, is to carry all your possessions and clothes in a backpack, trying to travel as cheap as possible, using hostels and public transport. Backpackers usually travel around Europe visiting the most number of cities and countries, and usually are longer than conventional vacations, lasting normally at least a month.


The first thing you have to do if you want to make this trip, is to find some partners who have the same willings as you and feel that this holidays could be interesting. The second step, once you have found your partners, is to organize your trip, taking into account the cities no one wants to loose. 

The best method to travel cheap, is to choose an starting point and an arrival destination, and if it´s possible, not to be the same one. If you have to take a plane, you have to know that prices might be the same or lower, if your starting and finishing cities are different. So, my recommendation is to research on the prizes of the flights! Kayak is a web that searches economical flights for you, and even compares itself to other webpages. 

The next thing you want to do, is to research and read different types of reviews about cities you are staying in, and check the recommendations about that city. Remember that they may be written by people that have visited it, so they should be pretty useful. I personally recommend to plan your entire trip only after you have read this reviews, in order to organize the days you are staying in each city, becouse as you can understand, Paris has more to see than Toledo. In TripAdvisor you will be able to see reviews of restaurants, tours and hotels, all of them made by users. You can also read about places that you would not be able to find in travel guides.

Remove your money fears and start traveling around the world.



For the last 3 or 4 years, caused by the increase of people who want to travel, quite a lot of low cost companies had born taking advantage of the situation. 

This summer I wanted to travel to Croatia with one friend and we had to search a flight, a bus and a hotel. We thought that it was going to be the expensive trip ever, but instead of that we found a flight that cost only 22 pounds to London and 54 pounds back to Pamplona. We found this because as I said there are lots of companies like Ryanair or Vueling that makes offers to travelers. Its a good opportunitie for students for example. 

In the other hand, nowadays all the most visited capitals are full of many hostels that are for people who don’t want to spend money in the stay. So we found a cheap hostel that it’s not like a five stars hotel but it was sufficient. Besides, for choosing your hotel you have a lot of webs where you can compare prices and like this, you can chose the best option according to your situation. Some examples are Trivago or Tripadvisor.

So if you want to travel and your only problem is money, in this blog you will find different options and tips to do it without money fears.  My personal experience to Croatia was good and simple, because I’ve found a cheaper way to do it.

Looking for a cheaper way of traveling

Most people like traveling, but the high prices of stays, flights and sightseeing discourage them from spending their money on knowing the world. That's why in the last few years, several webs have been created in order to saving money when it comes to traveling. These webs allow people to compare all the hotel or plane offers available for free and this way they don't need to hire a travel agent.
Thanks to these type of services, many people have saved lot of money and traveling is known to recently have increased.
Traveling the world, knowing new countries and learning about new places and cultures is a really beautiful experience and it's was a pity that people couldn't enjoy it because of the money deal. Now, they have a new choice of traveling with the low-cost options offered also on webs such as Trivago, Kayak.es, and so on.
I would recommend everyone to save a little bit of their time and money to travel, it's an enriching and exciting sensation that everyone should experience.

Some links of these type of webs:

Another step, traveling cheap

As I have been traveling with my family for the past 18 years, traveling cheap hasn´t been an issue for me. I have travelled all around Europe and America and I have been in fabulous touristic places. Now, since I am 18 years old and I have started traveling by myself, the biggest problem that I (and most travelers around my age) have, is money. As I´m an student I cannot afford to pay luxurious hotels and flights, I think that this is a topic that fits my situation like a glove. 

So, in this blog, I´m going to try to make some research in this topic and give different kinds of advises or who knows, even personal experiences.
