Barcelona students travel to Europe

Easter is just around the corner, and although you are now immersed in long days of study, locked up or shut away in your student residence in Barcelona or in your usual library, when you disconnect you only think about travelling when the exams are over and a whole week of holidays arrive.

Do you know where Barcelona's university students travel?

You have come to study in Barcelona, a city at the gates of Southern Europe, and therefore a unique opportunity to plan a trip through all those countries that you would otherwise not have so close by.

The Netherlands, Germany, Switzerland, Croatia, Norway, France, Belgium, Great Britain, Italy, Austria, and many more are just a few kilometres from Barcelona, accessible in a short time by plane or train, depending on how you prefer to travel. To make it easy for you, we share with you the different guides published by Lonely Planet for travelling around Europe. In all of them you will find useful information that you should have at hand, if you are planning your holidays in the old continent, as well as useful advice on currency, health, timetables, travel assistance services, all the necessary documentation you need to process, your rights as a passenger, etc.

If you are an international student who has come to study in Barcelona from the other side of the Atlantic Ocean and you decide to travel around Europe with one of your classmates from your student residence in Barcelona whose country of origin is Spain or any other country in the European Union, you will be surprised how easy it is for you to cross from one country to another without a passport, that you will not have to change currency in most of the countries you will travel through since the Euro is the most common currency and that your driving license will be valid in almost all the countries you will visit.

When you plan your trip, you have to decide whether to book a hostel, a hotel or an apartment, and that it fits everyone's budget! This is sometimes not an easy task, which is why websites like Drumwit are so popular among students, as they are an original solution to all these problems of organizing group trips, and also includes the surprise factor: until almost the last day you don't know where you will travel, don't you find it really exciting?

All you have to do is register with your name and email and start the trip by choosing Barcelona as the city from which you are going to travel. Then you indicate the dates you have chosen for your student break, and once you have made this selection, you will be shown, on the calendar, the available dates. They have two options for you: an economic pack for 150 euros and a deluxe pack with a higher price that assures you higher category hotels. This one is mainly thought for weekend breaks.

Europe is a continent with a great cultural richness, its thousands of years make you travel through its countries to scenarios that make you understand much better the history of the Western world.

Dare to discover and explore the old continent now that you have it so close.

Take the opportunity and travel around Europe this Easter!
