I hope to study abroad in Rome from January 2011-May/June 2011 … My parents are paying for tuition, room/board, and necessary expenses such as food. I want to save up a substantial amount of spending money in order to save my parents some trouble. Of course I plan on traveling on the weekends and during breaks … I was wondering how much spending money I should save in order to afford to visit these countries/cities:
Naples, Milan, Sicily, Venice, Florence (within Itay)
Germany (Berlin & Munich)
Ireland (Dublin)
England (London)
Czech Republic (Prague)
Switzerland (Genova)
Vatican City
Greece
France (Paris, Cannes, Nice)
Spain (Madrid, Barcelona)
Monaco (Monte Carlo)
& hopefully some of eastern europe as well. Please keep in mind that I am willing to buy a train pass and fly for very cheap (ryan air, or other similiarly cheap airlines) most of these trips will be weekend trips and I am more than willing to stay in hostels. Any kind of ballpark estimate would be nice!
1,000! thank you for your insight! i was planning on having to bring around 3k purely for travel expenses! has anyone had any experience with the eurail pass? and if so, is it worth it?

Can someone, whose traveled on this cruise, provide some advice and suggestions.
My biggest concern is, of the 6 ports we land on, I’ve only made plans for Barcelona and Rome, but have no plans made for Nice, Florence/Pisa, Naples/Capri, and Sicily. Any ideas??? I hear the tours are not necessary since these are not dangerous countries, and there’s always the fine print that you might not get to do everything written on a tour ititerery.
Any heads up on anything I should be aware of while onboard that you wish you knew ahead of time… stuff you forgot to bring onboard, unexpected expenses, etc…
I will post this 3 times since I want as much detail as possible. Respond on all 3 and best answer gets 30 points!

four of my friends and I are traveling to Europe over the summer. Were starting in Ireland, then ferrying with a car Scotland, then driving through England, through France, then Spain. From Spain, were taking a plane to Sicily and ferrying to the boot of Italy, driving up italy, into Switzerland, through Germany, and into Holland, from Holland, were taking a ferry to Sweden, and driving to Norway.
Is there a car rental service that will allow us to rent a van/ large car in Cork, Ireland and return it in Madrid, Spain about thirty days later? Then rent another car in Palermo, Sicily and return it in Oslo, Norway about forty days later?
Sort of like a regional european car rental service.
