Your 20's consist of no baggage that comes with life (mortgage, family, work) and your health is at its peak! You can still eat on the cheap, crash in hostels, and have the energy to explore the streets of Europe! Your mind will broaden and to be honest - the experience will change your life. Here are some tips on travelling to Europe: Use Hostels Hostels in Europe is generally clean, very well priced, and the best way to meet people in different countries to travel and explore with. Hotels in Europe can cost on average 100 euros a night (expensive), where hostels are on average 30 euros a night (deal!) The general perception of Hostels are that it's a place full of bed bugs and a real shabby place. But what you'll find is that some hostels are just as great as hotels, if not better sometimes! Side note: Bring a lock with you to use to lock your baggage in the lockers. It'll save you from buying one at the hostel at inflated prices.
