Trip on the cheap!
How do you get the most out of your Euro? The answer: Do as many internet searches as you possibly have time for. The result: 18 nights of lodging across our 9 cities for an average nightly cost of €48.39 (two people)!
Jessica always called me a maximizer. There are two types of people in the world, she says. Maximizers and satisfiers. Satisfiers are those who will take the first acceptable offer that comes by, while maximizers on the other hand will wait or search for the best possible offer/choice. If you have the time, it can't possibly hurt to hunt around a little for the best deal, eh?
We've come down to the following combination of hotels and hostels.
