throw in some specific questions and we're there for you. We get 10 or 20 people a day who want general tips and advice. That's what the older posts are for. Search the site a bit for things you might want to know about, look up old posts, then if you have a question, ask it. We are all here to help each other and generally do a pretty good job from what I've seen. Welcome aboard the best trael site ever, you'll love it here, guaranteed.

wat do you think the best mode of tranport is?
I was thinking a tour through france to barcelona if i could find one -- are there any other tour groups for 18 year olds except for contiki or topdeck? Neither of these tour operators have the tour im after - contiki has something very similar but its AU$180 a day!! and i think that is unreasonable. im hoping to survive off AU$70-90 a day maximum!
Then once in barcelona i would like to do a busabout trip around spain and maybe through italy. and then ferry over the greece and is there a ferry up the croatian coast? and then once in croatia or austria activate my rail pass and finish the rest of the tour off with that?
what do you think? any suggestions?

Mazza welcome to T-Punk!!!!!!!
Hey your trip sounds awsome just a bit of advice. Since you are planning on being in the neighborhood of Coatia you should really think about stoping in Bosnia-Hertzvinia... sorry I can not spell tonight It is an awsome country with a lot of the deep rooted history. Granted it is still torn up from the war and all but it is a must if you are near there.
