Travel Helpers for Europe

Have done a lot of travelling throughout Europe, almost always using public transport and particularly focusing on archaeological and historical sites. Happy to help wherever I can.

Living in the Netherlands, I travelled extensively across many parts of Europe, from the off the beaten track Faroe Islands to glitzy Paris or ancient Rome. Also travelled a lot in Eastern Europe, including unusual ones like Moldova, Kosovo and the Caucasus countries. So if you have questions about Scandinavia, the Mediterranean, the Alps, British Isles or many cities, please ask.

from there

Simply.. I have been travelling around Europe for more than 2 years. I have worked under the table in 4 countries as an 'illegal immigrant' lol. And I have now managed to walk across nearly 3000 km . There is a small amount of knowledge on my blog :)

TRAVELLING THROUGH EUROPE ON YOUR OWN

Whether you’re travelling alone or with a group, there are some advices or unwritten rules, which we should follow in a long or short way. On the one hand, a main rule for following, could be to keep you safe during your vacation in somewhere. For this reason, to get a travel insurance for your trip and to know how to contact your embassy should help. Besides, if you share your itinerary with friends or family, in case of an emergency, someone will be able to contact your travel insurance provider or embassy to get you the help you need.

And on the other hand, other advice is in contact with all the information directed to the tourists before and after arriving at the destination. Whenever I’ve gone on holiday, I’ve also planned my trip carefully. There are many platforms on the internet which could help you for planning a vacation. Once there, I used to stay in a well-connected accommodation in the city, I mean, a place which let me use means of transport to move around the city. For this reason, I also used to visit the tourist office almost after checking in. Always I wanted to make a well schedule, trying to optimise time and movement. If you know all about the events, the important places to visit, and the prices, you may choose the best way which suits your trip.

I definitely think that when you decide to get away to somewhere, you should also decide in which way where and how you could rest and relax, avoiding troubles with a well own planning. Obviously, if you plan, you’ll save money too. You know, waste not want not.

I live in Corfu and work in the tourism industry

I am an American who has traveled to Europe several times and I traveled full-time in Europe as a female solo traveler in 2014 to over 36 countries.

We have travelled this region many times over many years.

My wife and I run an extensive travel website (travelsignposts.com)covering greater Europe and the Mediterranean and have travelled to many countries over the years, including an Amsterdam to Budapest river cruise in 2005.

We have been to lot of countries here & have been living in Germany since long. Hence, we will be able to answer a lot of questions.

By choosing Europe as my destination to live and study abroad, I got to know the continent as a foreigner but trying everyday to live and experience countries and cities as a local.
In the past three years I have traveled to more than 30 European cities some of them for a day and others for a week or more. I
I have done my Erasmus year in Thessaloniki, Greece, and now doing my Master's Degree in Hungary.
My favorite and most fulfilling trips were Geneva to participate in a Conference for a week, Netherlands and the four cities I have been to, I was impressed, finally, my favorite spot on earth, so far, is Greece where history, great food, music, nature and culture lies.

Completed a 116 days backpack trip with train as main transportation in 2011.
Know Eurail pass very well - a very cost effective pass to travel around Europe hassle-free (comfortable as well). :-)

I live in Europe and I travel a lot, I might be able to answer your questions.

I am a travel writer, photographer, blogger who lives in europe and travels as often as possible. Also, I am familiar with the USA, specifically California, Illinois/Chicago, New York, Washington and Oregon.

I initially came to do a spot of travelling and seem to have 'moved in' to England. I have travelled through France, Italy, Catalonia, UK and Ireland. I have also spent time in Thailand, Australia and NZ, naturally. I am happy to help with any questions on those regions about anything to do with Travelling - backpacking to staying in hotels.

Licenced travel guide for Croatia, Split-Dalmatia county. With only 22 years I have visited almost any country in Europe. Offen traveling to Germany. Happy to help anyone who travel, expecialy helping people who come to Croatia.

Experienced land traveller across Europe (all except Portugal, Malta, Cyprus and Iceland), CIS etc. Been travelling more or less constantly for 10 years, and do average of 150k - 200k km per year. Have lived in UK, Neth, Liech, Switz, Ger and now Swe.

Don't fly, so excepting ferry portions, virtually all is train based. As i've had over 70 interrail tickets I guess that's my speciality, along with general timetable/day/night train issues etc. Also, map queries (i'm a cartographer), especially to do with London as i produce a large chunk of the public transport info for them. But I can help with virtually anything on Europe. Just ask.

I consider myself gotten pretty good at finding the cheapest way to get from A to B by public transport. I don't have a driver's license, my idea of "own vehicle" has two wheels, a saddle and 2 pedals.

I've been lucky (or unlucky enough) to recieve some legal training, my special interest is Schengen Visa law and German immigration and German citizenship issues.

As a travel agent I have travelled widely and can help with Europe, Australasia and the Pacific and Asia. I have good knowledge on hotels, ways to get around and things to see and do.

Lived in London for 2 years and Florence Italy for 6mths. Have done a lot of backpack travelling around western europe over the last 6 years and happy to help by sharing my experiences/advice with those who want!

I've visited almost every country in Europe and I had unique experience planning my wedding in Balkans. I lived in Estonia, the Netherlands and the UK. I also lived in Australia and the USA. Ideally, I would love to contribute about my home country Estonia. If you have any questions, please just ask.

Been living in Europe for a few decades and traveled back and forth around the place. Will continue to do so until I've 'crossed over' all the places on my list.

We stayed over more than 350 hostels all over the world. We're here to give advice about where to go, what to see and where to sleep in Europe.

Hello,
I'm from India. I've solo backpacked Europe bunch of times (short/long trips spanning 11 countries) I'd be happy to help with any questions you have regarding places to stay/visit, budget, commuting, etc...

I've visited most of European countries, all trips organized on my own and trying to minimize the budget. I'm a Polish citizen but lived also in Spain and Germany for some time. Also well experienced in various european mountains regions.

I live in Denmark, and have also travelled to parts of the UK, Ireland (Dublin) Sweden (Scania and Stockholm), Belgium, the Netherlands, France (Paris), and Italy (Rome and the Parma area).

I have spent 20 years in Europe and have visited all European countries.

Backpacking Europe, Spain, The Netherlands, gastronomy

I am more than willing to help any traveler/backpacker plan out their trip to Europe. I have briefly lived in 2 countries within Europe, and traveled to many western European countries. If you are looking to travel on a budget, I can definitely help you travel on a dime.

Any advice you need, I'm here for you (food, prices, accomodation, sport...) Just ask, and I'll answer you asap!

I was the one in Germany but then brought up in different countries in Europe and Africa:
I have lived in Finland for three years, in Austria for three years, in Greece for four years, in Egypt for three years and in Ethiopia for another four years.
After my return to Germany I studied law and then joined Lufthansa German Airlines. I stayed with Lufthansa for 10 years and then changed to work for PR agencies.
I have had the opportunity to travel and to live in foreign countries with people of various mentalities for all my life – and I look forward to continue doing so!

I like to visit unusual places in Europe such as nature-transformed places, places for aqua relaxation, inspiring places, citadels of beauty, peaceful and exotic places. When planning my trip, I usually make a route using a Tripcheat site which also helps to find rather cheap accommodation and manage my time. In anyone of you will get lost or have some fears regarding the road you need to follow - I'll be happy to help!

Schengen visa. Member t_maia and myself are the members who answer by far the most questions about Schengen visa. I once had some basic legal training and a good knowledge of European burocracy, so there's a fair chance that I succeed in answering your question (no guarantees).

++If you have a visa question, first read the 'Schengen visa' article in the Travel Guide, and have a look at the stickied thread on top of the Europe forum!!++

We have traveled Europe extensively (have visited every country several times), taking 13 trips in 8 different campervans, ranging from VWs to newer Hymers, logging well over 200,000 miles, total travel time of 9 years on the road. We have shipped 4 vehicles to Europe from the States, and bought four in England. We know the ropes! We have written a book on our adventures, part travelog, part how-to, called After They've Seen Paree.

Last summer I travelled for a month in ten different countries in Europe. I became a leader of the trip with my knowledge of map reading and my language skills with Spanish and some German. The chaperones of this trip designated me as the naviagtor of the bus. I led excursions into the cities to find laundromats, ATMs, public toilettes etc. I became familiar with many tricks when travelling in Europe and I believe that I can help answer many questions from prospective and current travellers. World travel is my passion and I wish to share it with others.

Are you looking for a book to read that is related to the journey you are going on? My obsession is to relate novels to places, categorising those that have a good 'sense of place' into their specific countries. So if you are going somewhere - I may be able to help you out with a great book to read before you go, or have some suggestions for books to take with you.

I live in Germany, so I know a little bit about it. I have been to Scotland, Ireland and Denmark quite a few times, so maybe I can answer questions about this countrys too. I know about places of cultural interest and beautiful landscape and things like that BUT I can't answer questions about buying cars, getting financial help etc, unless it is a emergency and it takes place in Germany. Because I don't know anything about that and all I can do to help in that case is phone around and translate these german answers for you in english.

I have taken extended (3+ months, getting ready for another in August) trips through Europe at a slightly "older age" (I'm 35) than your average backpacker. I have always travelled light and cheap. More importantly, I travel alone so I feel I can help others, esp. women, travelling alone.
