As everyone knows, Europe is very beautiful and wanted to be visited by everyone in this world. From the historical object, beautiful natural object, shopping up to culinary is always becomes the attraction to those visiting this continent. But unfortunately, it's not very cheap to be there, especially for Asians like me :D. Finally i have found the best way to travel Europe in low cost by travelling with my backpack. Although, this way of travelling is not very common to me. This is how i do it.
1. Visa
Nowadays most of European country are allowing every European visa, so you can travels to many country in Europe with one visa, accept UK and Turkey. So make sure you made a right visa for your travel.
2. Eurorail-Globalpass Ticket
By purchasing Eurorail ticket, you can travels to every countries inside Europe with every European train. This ticket's price are varies in it's validity. For 15 days, it cost around 300 euro's (not including the seat reservation). It is possible to get the ticket's cheaper when you have it in the travel agent in your local country (Non-Europe).
3. Seat reservation
Some cross country and regional train required a reservation seat number. otherwise, you can't hop on to the train. So, before you go travelling, you need to schedule your train and made an early reservation.
4. Hostel reservation
The cheapest place to stay is only a hostel. Make sure you booked before you are travelling. The reservation take only 10% of the total price.
5. Phone-card + Internet
Buy a European phone-card which comes with an international roaming packages. there are some provider offering a 25 Euro's package for 2 weeks roaming package which are valid in every European country.
6. Use public transport
Since you have an internet, you can browse for a map and it'll be no problem using the public transport to go around the city compare if you spend your money on the local tourism bus ride.
7. Food
The foods in Europe is a lot more expensive but it comes in a bigger size as well, it will be better to share one portion with your friends to reduce cost. For breakfast, having a cereal would be cheap or you can get it free from your hostel if the hostel are provided with breakfast. To save your eat spending, just eat in a fast-food restaurant or a Turkish restaurant. It took around 1-7 Euro's.
