So you just graduated this semester, and you want to celebrate. Go ahead and splurge some of that sign on bonus, graduation gift from the family, or those pennies you’ve been saving for a rainy day on a Euro trip adventure. You deserve it. But do it wisely, and make your money count.

If it’s one thing I appreciate it’s a bargain. As a thrifty student traveler, I am going to share my tips with you on how to can travel luxuriously and stylishly on a budget by visiting some of friendlier destinations for students on a budget. Here are a few tips and insights to make the most of your vacation, and vacation planning.

So where should you go, and get a good bang for your buck. Well how about TALLIN, ESTONIA (the New York Time’s Party Capital of the Year). Located in the what was part of the former Soviet Union, Tallin’s economy has thrived on being an inexpensive tourist centered economy.

How about to BERLIN, GERMANY for Love Parade. The largest dance event on Earth. Various international dance disc jockeys and aritist create lavish floats and proceed down the streets of Berlin for a free festival that celebrates love, democracy, and freedom; the modern version of Woodstock, to a trance bass beat (more info at http://www.loveparde.net).

Better yet, attend one of the many ID&T events in AMSTERDAM, HOLLAND. The largest organizer of dance events, and independent music label in Holland; ID&T organizes a sequence of yearly dance events. One such pair are the Sensation parties, with around 40,000 people. There are two editions, Sensation White (trance and techno), happening in the first Saturday of July, where all party people must be dressed in white, and Sensation Black (hard style), happening in the Saturday thereafter, where all party people must be dressed in black. These are by far one of ID&T’s signature events (more information on events and ticket pricing can be found at: http://www.id-t.com/).
