My trusty old backpack, eagerly waiting for her next journey

So having fulfilled all my obligations in London for the while, I am off on my travels for the month of August.
There is a plan (although a lot of my plans tend to get abandoned half way through when something bright and shiny distracts my gnat-like attention span and pulls me in another direction).

Dalmation coast. woof woof

The ‘plan’ is that I fly down to Dubrovnik. From there I make my way along the Dalmation coast and then on to Zagreb.

From there I go into Slovenia.

Then I have a music festival called Sziget to attend in Budapest for a week.

After Budapest I then have just three days to get myself to Paris for another music event (Rock en Seine. It’s a pun. A little example of French humour for you there).
Apart from Budapest and Paris, and the starting point of Dubrovnik, the rest is wide open to mind-changing and complete alteration so we will see what happens.
I am attempting to do this trip on a pauper’s budget. I won’t say the figure I have in mind, as I almost always fail to keep to my budget, but it will be interesting to see how catastrophic a failure this trip is on the budget-planning front.
