Don’t feel discouraged by Europe’s travel costs
When it comes to taking a journey through Europe, most people think that such a dream is beyond their modest means. However, this presumption is challenged by the millions of students and others traveling on shoestring budgets in Europe every summer. If they can call Europe their own, there’s no reason you can’t do that, too!
In reality, Europe is quite a bargain in many respects. If you wisely pick your hotels, meals, and transport, a trip to Europe will cost a lot less than a week in some of the popular cities in the United States.

From Albania, we continued to travel to Montenegro’s seaside. We arrived near the seaside in the afternoon on a really hot day. Ana and I were sitting on the grass, in the shade, while Tim was looking for a place to stay. But everything was booked, so we had to search in several towns until we found something.

But until he left, he talked on and on about this wonderful travelers’ oasis called The Wanderers Hostel (not The Wanderer’s Hostel, mind you!). He said it’s the best place to stay in Shkoder! He said we might meet him there again, but nothing was certain when it came to him. That is because he didn’t believe in mobile phones and other such technology. He left us in the middle of the night, to catch his bus, without saying goodbye, and uncertain if our paths …
