Hey
i'm going inter railing round europe this coming summer 2013. I'm going from july 22nd till August 9th, so thats for 19 days.
I'm going with 6 friends and we're going (in order) Rome, Venice, Budapest, Prague, Berlin and Amsterdam. We're staying in each place for average 3 nights each (apart from venice, for only one because we know how expensive it is).
We've booked all our hostels and we're doing it cheaply so average £15-£20 a night. But now i've got to save for my spending money but unsure on how much i should take.
How much do you think is a good a amount to take or spend per day (not including hostels)
Any comments are helpful thank you!

Hi.
Save money on accommodation and on food. Stay at hostels with a kitchen will save you a lot of money. Use supermarkets, don't go to fast-food restaurants. Buy your beer in supermarkets and sit somewhere in a park, at a river, ... to drink it.
If I staying hostels with kitchen or have my little camping gaz stove with me, food is definitely less than EUR 5 per day.

Have a look at the calculator here: [u]https://rail.cc/en/overall-costs[/u]

Hi.
I don't know how much you drink. ;)
But just make your own calculation ... it is easy. Do it for one day and multiply it with the numbers of days you travel.
