Hello, as indicated, I would like to travel in these countries
Finland-Sweden-Denmark-Germany-Netherlands-Belgium-(Luxembourg)-France-Spain-(Portugal)
Between the parent country or I'm not sure to go.
The problem is that I have a pass of 15 days ^ ^ ', and I guess its going to be a little tight.
My question is therefore:
1) What are the cities to visit, the city's most interesting?
2) Do visit Luxembourg's worth it, because I'm going to lose about 1.5 days.
3) Ideally, I think sleeping on the night train, and the day to visit a city, etc., is that possible?
4) leaving the pass, how is what I need money? As I intend to travel the cheapest possible:)
5) Is what I should do a thorough preparation (style around the world in 80 days), or just set a rough course?
6) The croushSurfing? It's a good idea to use it? Security question?
Thank you for all your answers n_n

Hi.
With an InterRail Global Pass 15 days continuous you might get a bit in a hurry, visiting to much places.
An example route could be like that:
[b]Helsinki - ferry - Stockholm - Copenhagen - Malmö - Berlin - Amsterdam - Brussels - Paris - Petit Train Jaune - Barcelona - Madrid - Lisbon[/b]
[b]Helsinki-Stockholm[/b]: [u]https://rail.cc/en/ferry-stockholm-turku-helsinki/f1233[/u]
[b]Stockholm-Copenhagen[/b]: [u]https://rail.cc/en/stockholm-copenhagen-kobenhavn-train/f4060[/u]
[b]Copenhagen-Malmö[/b]: just over the bridge by free Regional train.
[b]Malmö-Berlin[/b]: [u]https://rail.cc/en/berlin-night-express-sweden-berlin/f1186[/u]
[b]Berlin-Amsterdam[/b]: [u]https://rail.cc/en/berlin-amsterdam-train/f2407[/u]
[b]Amsterdam-Brussels[/b]: [u]https://rail.cc/en/amsterdam-brussels-train-thalys/f3991[/u]
[b]Brussels-Paris[/b]: [u]https://rail.cc/en/interrail-train-reservation/thalys/41[/u]
[b]Paris-Petit Train Jaune-Barcelona[/b]: [u]https://rail.cc/en/paris-pyrenees-barcelona-le-petit-tain-jaune/f4023[/u]
https://rail.cc/en/interrail-train-reservation/france/fr
[b]Barcelona-Madrid[/b]: AVE high speed train with supplement of EUR 10.
[b]Madrid-Lisbon[/b]: [u]https://rail.cc/en/interrail/madrid-to-lisbon[/u]
Of course you can add some more stops.
Simply use the[b] schedule planer[/b][u]https://rail.cc/en/search-interrail-route[/u]
Compare it to the[b] supplements[/b] (as some trains might need it): [u]https://rail.cc/en/interrail-train-reservation[/u]
And then check the [b]country topics[/b], as you can see, most European routes are listed there with examples, details and fares of night trains, information on how to avoid trains with supplements: [u]https://rail.cc/en/countries[/u]
Luxembourg: if you have the time, add it.
Night trains don't have showers (except some first class cabins). So sometimes it is nice to have as well a hostel - check [ux]https://rail.shop/hostelworld[/ux]
Calculate for you per day:
- food: EUR 5
- beer: EUR 5
- accommodation: EUR 20
- extras: EUR 5
PER DAY TOTAL: EUR 35
15 days X EUR 35 = ~ 525 EUR
It is only an example, depends on your style. :)
Have a rough course, book the reservations for night trains in advance at stations if you know your travel dates. Book hostels some days in advance if possible.
Couchsurfing: nice ... just try it. :)
I hope this will help you planing your trip! :)

Thank you, Peter :)
