Hello at all travelers out there! My friend is currently on the first stop on her trip through Europe in the great capital of Germany – Berlin! She have already been there for about two weeks and in between all the exciting sight-seeing and adventures she experience their she finally found some time to write down her impressions. This city is huge! She loves it their. Berlin has amazing buildings, the greatest variety of different cultures and interesting people. Every day she explore something new, there is so much going on there! She started her Europe trip in the biggest city of Germany because she is taking a German course Berlin their. This is definitely the perfect way to learn this language and for her a good way to get prepared for the subsequent journey. It also gives her the chance to get to know a lot of open-minded people from Germany and many other countries. She met this German girl who would like to go to Australia soon to improve her language skills. She has not started to plan anything yet though. Can anyone recommend me a particular school for a Sprachreise Sydney for her? After her classes in Berlin a friend from the UK will join her for the rest of her trip. After Germany (of which we still have to explore Munich and Cologne together) they will go to France and Spain, they do not know which cities exactly yet though. For this they are going to take the Eurail to get from one place to another which she heard is really sufficient for flexible travelers like them. Can anyone tell me their experiences with that? She is really excited about all the great things she is going to see on this trip. If anyone has any tips about a city which they have to see while traveling through Europe please let me know! |

Stephania, It's great to hear that your friend is enjoying her visit to Berlin so much.
Rail travel in Europe is often the easiest and most efficient method to get from one city to another. However, that depends on the circumstances in each case to some extent. For longer trips (ie: Paris - Madrid), using budget airlines is often a better option. In some cases it's better to use a Eurail Pass (sometimes with point-point tickets as well), and in other cases it's better to use only point-point tickets. There are a large variety of Eurail passes available, so it helps to have some idea of which order your friend will be visiting cities?
That question is a bit vague and difficult to answer. There are lots of great cities to see in Europe, but it would help to have more information on where she has been so far, which places she is most interested to visit, and whether she is most interested in visiting art galleries, historic sites, etc.?
It wasn't clear whether you will be travelling with your friend? Could you indicate which area you're from? More information would be really helpful!
Cheers!

Not wanting to blame someone too soon  , but looking at the posts by this member, it seems that there are some commercial interests playing a part. (the links to language school seems te pop up everywhere in her posts) |
