I plan on backpacking europe next summer and don't even know where to start. How much should I save? Which country is best to start? How do I avoid tourist areas?
Answer
First thing, research. Try hostel.com for the hostels. Frommers.com for travel tips and to connect with other travelers.
For the budget airlines, there are so many...aer lingus, wizz air, bmi baby, german wings, ryan air, easy jet, thomsonfly, flybe...just look it up in the internet. Fact is, there are numerous budget airlines flying to the UK. Buy your tickets now and it will be so cheap. Cheaper than buying the Euro Railpass. In fact, there are several on sale now for travel next year.
First country - UK. I suggest the UK because for the language convenience. I gather that you are a native English speaker and people there speak English. While you are getting started backpacking, at least language will not be your problem.
You can make London your base and just go to other countries for a few days or a week.
As for your budget, $80 a day should be enough, including bus fare and minimal entrance fees, if you really can stay on the cheap. I have in mind that 1GBP=2USD.
Oh, one last thing, the fantastic museums in London are free!!! But you will thoroughly appreciate them enough though to donate.

Anyone know how to make a regular backpack into a roller backpack?
Monica Sar
Strange question, but I need to find a way to convert regular backpacks into roller backpacks. Our school store sells our school logo-ed backpacks, and we need to convert some into roller backpacks. Does anyone out there know of a company that sells a kit to add the rollers and the handle yourself? Many thanks for any assistance!!!

This should be an easy task. you will need a round shaft around 5
inches longer than the Backpack be wide...
If you are able to find an old baby stroller or a similar object - just remove the wheels w / shaft (thats with ) If the shaft be longer than
the five inches longer than the,..you,..understand,.?! Naturally, the shaft must be rounded. Make holes in the backpack on the downside that would be positioned on your back,..reinforce / strengthen the
holes area. Put the wheels on. they ought be around 3 - 4 inches.
What do you do for a handle,.? Aaahhaa,.?! You may use an
old handle from a handbag or large purse - use rope material -
make same long enough so as to not lean, or hunch over. Reinforce
the the area around the holes you made,..Would it not be better to buy a cheaper roller Backpack,..?
Anyway, you may find a stiff - or, mildly stiff piece of thicker wire
run same through the handle, or grip,..you're set. You've made a roller backpack,..
