Travel Europe by Train, Tram or Bus


BASE.  There is still some essence to "backpacking in Europe" meaning travelling light by finding a base accomodation like a relative or host that you can come back to for laundry and repository of personal belongings, souvenirs and shopping finds.

ENGLISH.  This trip drives home the importance of reading comprehension amd English proficiency.  As reading dashboards and instructions were daunting even for me, I wonder how much more difficult it would be for someone with less skills.

PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION.  In Europe, there is not much traffic as in Manila or Cebu because the number of private cars on the road are limited by the expense and the hassle of looking for parking space.  The fact that the public can choose between train, tram or bus is another reinforcing factor to use efficient public transportation instead.
