How much money would you take on a backpacking trip across Eastern Europe?

I'm planning on going as long as my money will take me. How much would you recommend for a 1-2 month trip?

Now that's something i've always wanted to do. You're so lucky. But, you shouldn't use cash, maybe travelers checks or credit cards? They would be safer.
Reply:It depends of course on what you will be doing and where you plan to sleep. Basically on a shoestring budget you can sleep for $50/night or less but you have to reserve ahead. How do you plan to eat? Food will cost you a minimum of $20/day if you stay in a B%26amp;B(breakfast included).





Train tickets etc add up fast when you are backpacking and if you drink beer or stronger that can also make a big difference. Based on my calculations from personal experiences $3,000/month will be enough but you need to budget closely.





TIP: If you plan to call home buy small denomination phone cards in each country. They are cheapest that way.





Have a great time!
Reply:To be safe I would recommend $ 60-80 /day. Eastern Europe is not any cheaper than the west.Especially now days $-euro exchange rate is not helping at all. Just came back from a month trip in summer. Austria -Hungary-Slovakia-Croatia
Reply:1-2 grand depending on how u eat and wat ur going to europe to see
Reply:Calculate $55-$70 a day for food, lodging ect.
Reply:$2000 ??
Reply:It depends on how you plan to move and live there for that time. I can travel for just $10 a day... ANYWHERE IN THE WORLD... but I know how to travel and I speak 4 languages, so I don't need to go just in the tourist areas to eat or stay.





$1000 a month will do you quite nicely... less if you know how to travel. It's a very subjective thing... and no 2 people travel the same way.
Reply:If you can arrange 10,000$ or more Ican think about that .
Reply:2000 if your planing on having a good time recommended
