Hey,
I'm looking to interail Europe next year some time by myself.
I just wanted a bit of advice from people that have already been.
Is it easy to meet people in hostels you're staying in? How easy is it to 'wing' which places you're going and where you're going to stay?
And what time of year is best to go.
Any advice would be appreciated! Thanks!

As for winging it we planned out our destinations beforehand and booked hostels, however you can go get pretty much anywhere with little planning using your pass.Last edited by Patryk_; 16-07-2017 at 02:32. -

I decided not to wing stuff cos it was two of us going, so I booked hostels and airbnbs in advance. But I'm sure you could wing hostels if it's just you, but idk if it's worth the risk of finding out everyone that's within your budget is full up. Most hostels have dorms of 3-10 people so can be really sociable. I didn't see many people travelling by themselves, most people are in groups. I definitely recommend the chain Meininger hostels (in loads of European cities), they're affordable and pretty sociable.
