Travel expenses for spring semester

[karlbiermann]

I am considering spending a semester in Maastricht, Netherlands and was wondering what extra travel expenses i should plan for. Classes run from Monday-Thrusday and end at noon so i will have plenty of extra time to travel during the weekends. Also there is a two week break during the mid point of the semester. I would like to know how much it would cost to travel other than tuition and the school cost. Basically how much money it will cost to backpack all over europe for the semester in my time off. Any advice is welcome, also anyone who has studied in Maastricht would be a great help.

It would be hard to guess how much it would cost to travel without a better idea of the places you want to visit. If you travel with friends, you can save a lot of money staying at hostels. Air tickets are cheap with companies like BMI and easyJet. I would imagine that you will end up spending around $2000 easily.
