In October 2022 I took two weeks backpacking trip through Europewhere I slept shared train cabins And Economical Airbnbs.

I traveled through Germany, Austria, Italy and Switzerland for two weeks. This was my first time visiting each country and backpacking in Europe.

There were many surprises that made me realize that hiking is much more than just a fun adventure, from difficulties to hidden gems.
