WOW... you don't know how happy I am right now that I found someone who's going on the same trip as me :-) I actually didn't book yet, because I was waiting to make sure I wouldn't be the only one! Haha! How awesome is this trip!?!? Did you book yet? I just got approved to be off work, so I'm going to start the booking process real soon! By the way, I'm Missee from USA! Are you going alone or with a friend? It'll be cool to see how many people book for this trip time frame! If you or anyone else who gets on here wants to send me an email, please do!! My email is misseegroff2004@hotmail.com! SOOOO EXCITED!!!!!!!!!

Hi everyone! I just booked this trip this week. I'm surprised to see people already talking about it considering it's still so far off! I'm also arriving in London on the 29th and I'm going alone (couldn't wait forever for my friends to afford it! Smiler...) I've never been to Europe so maybe we could share tips before we go!  Well... good to see other people planning so far ahead also... if only it wasn't over 7 months away! Smiler

I am arriving in London on the 29th to.  This is also my first trip to Europe... well really my first trip overseas... and the first time I have even been in a plane... I am so excited... and counting down the days.
Planning ahead is good... gives your a chance to save money for the trip... especially spending money (alcohol... lol).
Well if you wanna talk more you can email me on jess_da_blondy@hotmail.com
227 days to go... it think!!

Hi glad to see that others are going on  the same trip as myself. Really looking forward to this. Myself and a mate are going to Ireland on the 28th of September and going around the place, through Scotland and England before we start this tour. Should be great fun. Prauge was why we decided on this one and Germany. Hoefully we will have some more people make contact soon for this trip. My email is dickie26@westnet.com.au if you would like to chat.

Guys and Gals,

How we going? I've just booked my seat on what is rumoured to be the best time of ours lives. That's right, the October 30th Europen Inspirations. This will be my second Contiki tour (I did one of NZ last year). They are the only way to travel, although we did seem to drink way too much! It will be my first time in Europe, and unlike NZ, I'll be travelling alone.

I'm arriving in London on 12 October (I think) from my hometown of Adelaide and will have a look around, then it's time to party on the Contiki bus. My return flight from London is schedulled for the end of January 07 - so I should be over the Contiki hangover by then.

I haven't told work I'm leaving yet, that should be a fun experience!

Looking forward to partying with you all,

Seeya soonish,
Sammy

p.s. What have people booked? Twin Share or Triple Share?

email addy is swhelan@esc.net.au

Hey everybody!!  143 days!!!!
I was wondering how early everyone will be around in London on the 29th?... I was thinking of taking some sort of sightseeing tour of the city before we officially meet up with the group.  I've never been to London and would hate to be there and not see some of it!  Actually I was also a little confused as to when we are officially meeting the group and leaving for Amsterdam.... do we have to meet at 6pm on the 29th and depart on the 30th?... I've seen a few different versions of the itinerary.
Just wondering if anyone had a similar idea!

Just realized I'm the only one who hasn't given an email address... haha oops.. lorali22@hotmail.com
Hope to talk to you all soon! I seriously can't stop thinking about this trip! yay for us!
P.S. As for the London thing I'm just planning on doing one of those jump on/off bus tours of the city with whatever time there is... it's really cheap and an easy way to see the most stuff in little time.  Hopefully a few of us can meet up at the hotel and go together!

Hey everyone! well the days are flying by now and before you know it we will be partying in europe! Its good to see that we are starting to get a few numbers up now as i would hate for this trip to be cancelled! Just thought id ask if anyone has considered staying on in london after the trip? Im considering spending another week over there to see everything in the UK and possibly head over to ireland/scotland. Ill be travelling alone so anyone wanting to tag along the more the merrier!

Loving the enthusiasm of the group!!

Hello fellow European Inspirationors!

I was already incredibly excited about this trip but now after reading this thread I'm 10 times more excited - Our group sounds like it's going to be awesome fun!!!

My best mate (of 18 years!) and I are embarking on an 8 or 12 week stint in Europe.  We are two 23 year old, fun, adventurous, party loving chickas who simply want to escape Melbourne temporarily and live the partying lifestyle... on a budget!

The first leg of our trip will be Greece.  We are doing the 8 day Mykonos Cruise, heading to London for a couple of days, Edinburgh for a weekend, 10 days in Spain, couple of days in London and then meeting all you lovely people.

We've booked triple share accommodation so there's obviously going to be a spare bed.  We don't bite and aren't too scary looking in the morning so if anyone would like to bunk with us - feel free!

Looking forward to getting totally and absolutely legless and sharing a lifetime experience with you all.

Take it easy,
Sod

Hey Guys,

It seems everybody here is really excited by this trip. I really want to go but can't find any friends who seem as though they can afford it. Looks as though I may be doing it alone. That is until I meet everyone on the trip.

Hopefully see you all soon

Chris
