Mark Pearson, editor of the anthology Spain From a Backpack, answered your questions about backpacking in Europe.
_______________________
New York, NY: I (I'm 29) will be backpacking in Eastern Europe (Prague, Vienna and Budapest) with my Mom this summer. We leave from JFK on Aug. 1, for 15 days. Do you have a suggested essential itinerary -- where to spend more of our time, etc? Thank you, D.F.
Mark Pearson: Hi D.F.,
That's great you're taking your mom to Eastern Europe. Here's a suggested itinerary:
- 2 or 3 nights Prague
- 1 or 2 nights Vienna
- 2 nights Budapest
- 2 nights Eger, Hungary
Depending on where you fly in and out of, you could add Krakow, Salzburg, or Munich.
_______________________
Dublin, OH: I back-packed through Europe for 3 1/2 months in 1970. I even met my husband that summer on a train and we have been married for almost 36 years. How do think back-packing has changed from then to now?
Sincerely, Diana
