Hi!
That is possible, no problem. Keep in mind that if you want to travel with InterRail, the Baltic States, Belarus, Russia, Ukraine and Moldova are not included in the InterRail ticket.
For basic information about InterRail have a look at [u]https://rail.cc/en/first-time-interrail[/u]

Thank you! :)

Hi
In 2013 I completed an Itinerary using a Eurail Global Pass 1 month consecutive followed by a Balkan Flexipass 10 days in 1 month. This gave me 40 days consecutive travel from north-east to south-east (starting in Helsinki and finishing in Plovdiv: not a capital I know) using night trains and ferries where possible, staying in only four hotels and maximising the daylight hours spent in each city. Travel period May-June 2013.
During this time I visited all the Capital cities of WESTERN Europe accesible by rail plus the Balkans (excluding Pristina-Kosovo and Tirana-Albania). That year Greece was not accessible by international trains either!
However all the other capitals were accessible with the Eurail Global Pass or the Balkan Flexipass. (I went through London on the way to Dublin without it being covered by either pass by taking point-to-point tickets).
The total number of capitals visited was 28 in 40 days. Some, like Madrid, you have to vist twice in order to visit (eg) Lisbon. And some like Sarajevo you have to go in and out on consecutive days. I spent at least one full day in each of the capitals I visited. Sometimes i visited a city on more than one day but not consecutively.
Because Poland is not covered by the Eurail Global Pass 1 month, I did not visit Warsaw. There are of course a number of countries/capitals as noted by Flo that are not accessible with any pass, so you would have to build your itinerary with a significant number of point-to-point tickets.
I don't know how many capital there are in Eastern Europe, but I reckon you could put together a very respectable itinerary for a month!
Travel light and have fun.
Regards
Richard
