Before you book your trip: Europe Air Travel

 Another great thing about traveling in Europe is airfare is so much cheaper than in North America. Our favorite sites to book flight are: Kayak, Kiwi, eDreams, Skyscanner.

It’s so easy to use and we found some our cheapest flights using their “Show Whole Month” feature, where you can select your route and it tells you the cheapest days of the month to fly.

Before you book your trip: European Train Travel

 How are you traveling around Eastern Europe? One way to travel around Europe is by train and the best way to save money on trains is to buy InterRail/ Eurail Pass.

Now to be honest, we didn’t take any trains in Slovenia because the buses and ride-sharing were cheaper. However, if you are traveling to multiple countries fairly quickly or traveling to Western Europe, purchasing a train pass might be your cheapest bet. 

Before you book your trip, think about this:

 Travel Insurance

We never travel without travel insurance. It’s never fun to think about losing your stuff or the possibility of a delayed flight, missing a connection, or heaven forbid you get injured while traveling. It’s best to know that you’ll be covered if anything goes wrong.

Items to Pack for Traveling in Slovenia

 7.         eBook Reader  - Download all your travel guidebooks onto your Kindle. You no longer have to carry around heavy books that take up space in your bag, and the Paperwhite verison lights up in the dark.

8.         Collapsible Cups - If you’re like us, you will be drinking wine in Europe and these come in handy for picnic lunches.

9.         Solid Shampoo bar - No more worrying about liquid limits. One all-natural bar will last me up to 3 months and they smell great!
