The World's Most Expensive Capitals
If you are planning to visit the Old Continent, you'd better start saving. According to an article published by Hotnews.ro, eight of the world's most expensive capitals are in Europe. The results of a study conducted by The Economist, quoted by money.cnn.com, show Oslo to be the world's most expensive city. The Norway capital is followed by Paris, Copenhagen and London, while Bucharest ranks only the 96th, on the same level with Manama, Bahrain.
What can you do? Either take one capital at a time, or try the hostel workaround, it will save you a lot. Try flying low cost or taking your car, if it's not that fuel hungry. Oh, and try less fancy restaurants and save your money for all the important museums. Or, seek for large group tours, they are bound to get discounts.
Well, the cities I am to visit can be quite expensive. But when you stay in a hostel and watch your expenses a bit, you can really keep things low budget without really denying yourself anything of importance.
