I just left college with an M.D. and a degree in Psychiatry, so I've decided that a vacation is in order, I don't have a job yet so I have about a year. I think I really wanna go have adventures in Europe, and I have decided to walk around and travel all the way from England, across the English channel into Spain, then to France (I plan on going to see Paris), Belgium, Germany, The Czech Republic, Poland, Ukraine, then I will go into Russia and I will loop around into Finland and Sweden, then I will catch a boat back into England where I will relax for a couple weeks and maybe check out Ireland. Before I go however I plan to read about each of these countries and study Major cities and attractions.
The stuff I'm bringing includes:
Clothing:
* 1 Pair of Jeans
* 2 Pairs of Khaki/Dress Pants
* 2 Pair of Shorts

Does this seem like two much? I've put all of this in my Bag (Which I think will last the trip) and tested it, I can run with it pretty far, the weight is not too bad. Anyway, any tips? Experiences? Stories? Words of Wisdom? Places I should go? I'm starting this trip at the beginning of summer this year, I look forward to it.
