hi guys and welcome back to my channelin today's video I'm going to answer a question that some people have asked meseveral times on Instagram how do you visit so many European cities andmuseums? in the summer of 2017 I started to publish some pictures of me in frontof many artworks around the museums in Europe.
In a month or enough on the roadin fact I visited the Paris Munich Prague Budapest Dubrovnik and many othercities.
In this video I'm gonna tell you how planned my journey and how Ifell in love with the adventure so that I decided to do the same the followingsummer choosing new destinations.
this video is not sponsored by flixbus butI wanted to share with you my honest experience so if you want to follow myart adventures subscribe to the channel and activate the bell.
My trip onthe road started by accident I just spent my first month here in London andI was figuring out whether to spend the rest of the summer here.
So looking forcities to visit I discovered the interflix and I booked it without thinkingtwice.
The idea is similar to the interail but by bus the interflix in factis an offer of the flixbus company that allows you to buy 5 tickets for 99euros.
I knew I had about 5 weeks and I absolutely wanted to discover someEuropean capitals so I made a list of the places I would like to visit and tryto evaluate the best route for my time and my budget.
There are a couple oflimitations that needs to be considered before booking first only directconnections can be booked and second the same routecannot be booked at as a return journey.
Once you understand the mechanism youjust have to choose wherever you want to go so it's super easy.
My journey startedin July from London and as a first stop I chose to go to Paris.
I already knew Iwanted to visit it but then I wanted to understand also how much time to spendin each city so the actual plan of the journeyrequired a little bit of patience.
I decided to always travel at night and tospend at least 3 days in each city so I spent one night traveling to movefrom one city to another and about 2 nightsin hotel, Airbnb or hostels.
Those days in Paris were amazing and they gave me theenergy to continue the trip to Munich the only city where I spent only one day.
I plan it to go there on the first Sunday of the month and we were able tovisit the museum only for one euro each.
However this forces me to spend twoconsecutive nights on the bus and it is something that I will never suggest toanyone else.
My next stop was Prague for four days so I decided to go around andvisit the city but also to rest.
Some places like the dancing house or the oldtown where of course included in the itinerary and what I love the most aboutthis city is the unique atmosphere that you can find there and everywhere whichcannot be confused with any other city in Europe.
To be able to stay within thebudget I recommend choosing a mix of expensive and cheaper cities this is whythe next stop for me was Budapest.
In this case the journey was short andI arrived immediately ready for a tour of the Parliament, castle and MargaretIsland.
Another must in the organisation of my trip was the sea so from Budapestthe next stop with a direct route was Dubrovnik in Croatia this one was thelongest journey from 4 p.
m.
to 6 a.
m.
in the morning but being able to put in thebag the pullover and wear the swimsuit was the best moment of the entirejourney.
So I ended up using the 5 tickets for 99 euros but I knew from thevery beginning that I had to come back here in London so I decided to crossCroatia by local transport via Zadar Sibenik and Split arriving to Italy inTrieste and from there I started again with other 5 tickets for 99 euros.
As Itold you before it was the 2017 so it was the year of the Art Biennale inVenice so I spent a couple of days in Trieste between San Giusto and theMolo Audace but next stop was Venice just for one day just in time to enjoy thecity with a lot of artworks amazing artworks.
To be honest with you in myopinion this is what makes the interflix the same asInterail the ideal vacation for those who love to move.
It gives you theflexibility to go around choosing the destination and being ableto fall asleep in Venice and just wake up in Barcelona.
Here there was no lackof Picasso and Miro and there were many tours of the Rambla and the Gothicquarter.
After Venice Barcelona was also my last stop with the sun and the seabecause after that we went back to Paris for a couple of days and the journeyended with two cities full of museums.
The first one was Berlin a warm butslightly cloudy Berlin with its museum quarter and the second one was Amsterdamdoing the slalom between bicycles and tulips but also with the possibility tovisit so many museums and to see so amazing masterpieces for example by Van Gogh.
Coming back to London after five weekswas a little bit of a trauma for me but we enjoyed the experience so much thatdespite our full-time jobs we decided to book another interflix for two weeksthe following year in the 2018.
This time we travelled around Spain and Portugal.
We moved from Paris to Madrid Lisbon Porto and Bilbao.
For this summer wehaven't decided yet if we will make this experience again but given the fact thatbuying five tickets for 99 euros you only have to wait for the activationtime it's easy to organise even without much planning.
To book you can visit theinterflix website purchase one or more packages according to your needsand from then on you have just to wait for the activation of the five couponsthat will be sent via email.
Once activated you can put in the cart any direct bus journey and enter your discount code at the checkout.
The amount due goes immediately to zero.
Now all you need to do is to find an hotel, Airbnb or hostel where you want to sleep I hope you enjoyed the story of mytrip it made me want to live and go again on the road I understand that it'snot a holiday that can appeal everyone but open ups many possibilities and allow you to visit different cities in a fewweeks.
