i am intrested in going inter railing this summer but i have no idea where to start.
anyways i would like to know how much money i would need if i was to do 10 stops in 30 days?
i am going with me and my g/f.
Book accommodation and travel from place to place?
My idea of inter railing was to just get the ticket and do everything whilst on the move but reading these posts it doesn’t seem like that.
i was thinking that we could do everything for like 250 a week each can this be done?
aswell can i use the pass to get from england to paris?

Hi.
You can book accommodation and train reservations whilst on the move.
It is not a problem - and you stay much more flexible.
In case a reservation isn't available anymore for a special train you want, you can use free connections which we list in our handmade schedules: [u]https://rail.cc/en/search-interrail-route[/u]
Concerning pre-booking of accommodation: for some cities it is good to do it. As they are expensive. For example Amsterdam or Paris.
An other option are night trains or just going by train to a small village, leave it and sleep somewhere in the meadows. :)
Calculation for your budget: [u]https://rail.cc/en/overall-costs[/u]
UK to Paris: Eurostar is expensive. The best is to use the ferry, a ferry/bus or a special fare for the Eurostar train.

You have to calculate it for your own as you should know yourself, if you drink only one beer or five in the evening, if you need two packs of noddles or only 100g of rice.
Calculate it per day and multiply by 30.
Also use the calculator: [u]https://rail.cc/en/overall-costs[/u]
Western Europe (Amsterdam, Brussels) is expensive. As more as you go to the East, as cheaper it gets.
Try [ux]https://rail.shop/hostelworld[/ux] to find prices for hostels.
Extra costs for the trains.
Simply use the link I gave you: [u]https://rail.cc/en/search-interrail-route[/u]
Here you find information about the different connections, reservation fees, free connections, etc...
