Hi all, a day ago I posted on my very barebones trip plan and got eviscerated.

For those that took the time and effort to actually make helpful comments, I thought i’d provide this update based on all your advice.

My NEW plan is to fly out for two weeks, the exact days do not matter, but it will be sometime in september or october.

Budapest 4 nights

Stopover in Bratislava for a day

Vienna 2 night

Prague 2 nights

Berlin 4 nights

The flights will cost €800, and i’ve moved to €90 per night for accomodation, €40 per day for food, €200 on trains, and £500 on tourist sightseeing stuff. This works out to roughly €3000.

Regarding remote work, as it completely based outside of the EU and will be less than 4 hours every day, it is not my primary purpose nor counts as work locally so I think it should be okay in the legal gray area. Additionally, i’ll stick to hotel wifi instead of trying to work on trains.

I really appreciated the outflow of responses from people who provided genuinely beneficial feedback, and I hope my adjusted schedule is a better planned one if still very rushed through these countries.

Hi all, i’d love some advise and input.

I have the availability to work remote, and have a bit saved up. I’m 21, live in Australia, and have travelled to a few asian countries on my own.

I will be working 1am-9am local time, but hoping this should be okay. I’d like to visit as many countries as I can while still experiencing them.

My current plan is to fly out Friday night, Arrive Sat night, then do the following:

Copenhagen 2 nights (it is the cheapest return)

Day trip to Malmo and Lund (Sweden)

Berlin 3 nights

Day trip to Szczecin (Poland)

Prague 2 nights

Vienna 2 nights

Day trip to Bratislava (Slovakia)

Budapest 3 nights

Fly back to Copenhagen for the flight.

I’ve budgeted €750 for the flight to and from Australia, €75 per night for accomodation, €20 per day for food, and €200 on trains, and £500 on tourist sightseeing stuff. This works out to roughly £2500, is this reasonable?

Is it possible for me to get an eSim and use that to hotspot while I travel on a train or should I stick to hotel wifi?

Edit: Thank you to those that were helpful, and i’ll increase my food budget to €35 a day, and overall budget to roughly €3000. I’ll also skip the Poland day trip, and although i’m flying into copenhagen, i’ll go across the bridge to Sweden that day, and save the two nights for when I fly back from Budapest (Flights are only €50)

For those who gave input, I’ll be taking half days from work, only 4 hours, so majority of my time will be spent on tourism. My schedule will be more like 5am-9am work, train, sightsee, train back, and in bed by 10pm.

Thanks to the helpful comments!
