I stayed at Bergen for a couple days, and it was obscenely expensive.

That makes it very similar to the other one done by Mecier (sp?), then.I came upon a barroom full of bad Salon pictures in which men with hats on the backs of their heads were wolfing food from a counter.

For something less than a rupee a day a man can feed himself sumptuously in San Francisco, even though he be a bankrupt. Remember this if ever you are stranded in these parts. ~ Rudyard Kipling, 1891Comment

But accommodation eats up a lot, and is *vastly* more expensive in London than in Paris.Originally posted by Starchild
I've, for one, found that if you know where to go and what places to eat at, you can eat better quality food for cheaper in London than lots of other places in the UK. Its certainly cheaper and more varied to eat out in London than Norwich.Smile

Why the hell would Germany, Denmark, Sweden, and Norway all have different currencies (probably Finland too)? Annoying bastards.why the hell would you buy bottled water and why would you pay for it in euros. off course you'd get ripped off
And beer was even more expensive.
Prague OTOH was dirt cheap.
