okay, here is the question. I am going interrailing in june from poland to grecce, then by boat to italy and then back home to almeria. I have asked a few people this but keep getting different answers, SHOULD i bring a tent. I no its cheaper and only weights 2kg but is there any point, should we just stay in hostals. Any body done this before??

hi edel.

how many of you are travelling?
what size tent is it? (1 man, 2 man?)
do you enjoy camping?

if it can sleep at least 2 peeps and only weights 2 kilos, i can't think of any reason not to bring it.

it is a good option (camping) in case hostels are full up and/or too expensive.

just my opinion.

saludos,

there is only 2 of us traveling and i feel that i might get a bit annoyed staying in hostels all the time but then again its something else to carry and if we never use it. just wondered if anybody had brought one with them while travelling??

hey edel.

not sure why i am the only one advising here frowner but i had a tent with me when i was backpacking around spain and portugal for nearly 3 months.

this was over 8 yrs. ago and tent tecnology was NOT where it is today, my tent weighed WELL over 2 kilos but as i was a poor grad student, it was a must have as it saved me and my ex money. also got us out of a few binds as we were travelling in peak tourist season and some hostels (at least the cheap ones) were full up.

saludos,
