After working six months in Scotland and England, I realized that my initial financial forecast was too optimistic. I didnt want to leave without touring Europe, but I could not afford to travel by train. So I looked around for alternatives and found two bus passes that I could afford: Eurolines Europass and the Busabout pass . Eurolines Europass is less expensive than Busabout (and offers fewer perks), but both passes cost less than comparable rail passes. For example, here are the current rates for the Europass. The current rates for the Busabout pass are listed here . The main advantage of Busabout versus Europass and Eurail is additional convenience. Busabout will drop you off at hostels and help you book rooms in advance. Eurolines provides an external link for booking accommodations online via their site. Both bus passes let you travel to a few countries that a Eurail pass does not include. For example, with Europass you can visit the following countries . Busabout, does not offer quite as many country destinations, but it lets you visit more smaller destinations, as well as packages to Morocco, Croatia and the Greek Islands. Ultimately, comfort is the main factor to consider when deciding whether to travel more expensively by train or more cheaply by bus. Buses are often crowded and are about as comfortable as they are in the U.S. On the upside, European bus stations are far nicer than in the U.S., and buses are used by more people. Compared with the train travel Ive done in Europe, bus passengers seem to socialize more than rail travelers. Perhaps more importantly, most bus passengers are locals. All of our drivers were locals, and they generally provided interesting bits of information. You can buy a Busabout pass online. Their web site, www.busabout.com , also contains maps and stop information. The Eurolines pass can be bought online as well and a network map is available. An audio interview is available at www.eurolines.com - just click for the Podcast. KOKE MILLER-THOMAS has lived in several countries. Currently she is a social worker for the state of Texas.

Get Us Out of The Tuscan Sun - San Gimignano, Tuscany, Italy Just when you want to feel supremely sorry for yourself, Keridwen Cornelius says, it sends you a mint field, Chianti, and the sunlight setting aglow the towers of San Gimignano. Don't Go to Naples - Naples, Italy Leif Pettersen set out to find the gems of Naples. The problem was, there really weren't any and if there were, the supreme effort that was required to get your ass anywhere in Naples completely traumatized you and over-shadowed whatever it was you wanted to see. Grappa Delight - Bassano della Grappa, Veneto, Italy Jessica Nierenberg knows exactly what to do with leftover grape skins after visiting the birthplace of grappa. Tears of Sorrow, Tears of Joy - Rome, Italy Studying abroad in Rome, Bradley T. Kestner is saddened to learn of Pope John Paul II's illness and death.

Italian Cooking Lesson Justine Merrill knows the Italian secret for cooking chicken - and is willing to share. A Country Full of Love and Beauty - Italy Italy, the country millions of people go to, has everything. Take a huge step back in history - Sluderno, Alto Adige, Italy Check out German-speaking Italy: it's definitely worth the trip! The Dark Heart of a Beautiful City - Palermo, Sicily, Italy Just because you don't hear about the mafia doesn't mean it's dead in Sicily. Ruining Agrigento - Sicily, Italy Closed tourist offices, rain and the Festival of the Madonna may interfere with Leif Pettersen's plans, but at least he doesn't have to worry about tourists. Mind the Euro-Trash - Sicily, Italy Leif Pettersen wraps up his European tour, half-crazed and exhausted, in what he thought would be the quiet little town of Taormina, Sicily. Secluded and Ill-Researched - Sicily, Italy His trip was ill-researched and ill-advised, but Leif Pettersen still loved Marettimo.

Tour of Duty: An art pilgrimage in southern Europe #8: Pilgrimage Postscript - Cinque Terre, Italy It is with great reservation that Neville tells about a place very special to him, so if you go, don't muck it up, okay? Tour of Duty: An art pilgrimage in southern Europe #2: A Rendezvous with Flora and Venus in Downtown Florence - Florence, Italy All the major tourist attractions of Florence are within a few kilometres of the main train station, but Neville's there for the 15th-century rock star.
