My best friend from America is coming to visit me tomorrow from Naples, Florida (where we met) and we decided on a kick ass Christmas extravaganza that costs a total of 300 euros. We're flying from London to Copenhagen, taking a train and a ferry from Copenhagen around Sweden and staying in Malmo and then finally coming back to Copenhagen and flying from there to Amsterdam for five days.
**Disclaimer** We will definitely spend more on booze, Christmas presents, etc. but for the sake of simple math I say 300 euros.
So how did we do it? FRIENDS and HOSTELS! We are staying in a hostel for 4 nights in Copenhagen called the Generator Hostel and it cost us 98 Euros each. We're staying in an Air Bnb location in Malmo that cost us a whopping 18 euros each for one night and then staying in Amsterdam with a friend for the remaining five nights. For accomodation, our total costs came to 116 euros.
Here's a break down of flights and where we found them:
(skyscanner.com) London -----Copenhagen 69 euros
(Around the Sound ferry) Copenhagen ---------Malmo 28 euros
(KLM.com) Copenhagen ----------Amsterdam 79 euros
Flights total: 174 euros
Accommodation: 116 euros
Bus transfers: 10 euros
Total: 300 euros
Whaaa? That's right suckas- 300 euros. Of course, I would't have been able to do this without my fabulous boyfriend's friend letting us stay in their Amsterdam apartment while they travel to Valencia for Christmas. It worked out perfectly. So off we go tomorrow, wish us luck!
More updates to come!
