Also a lot of traveling has to do with what kind of stuff you are into. If you don't like history and museums here then chances are they will be just as boring to you there (wherever there is). Don't do what you thing "you should", but do what you know you want!!!! Good Luck!!

If you know you're the type that is going to freak because you don't have every bit planned out from the time you get up until the time you go to sleep, go for it. If you like to wing it, adjust accordingly. You do the amount of planning that is going to make you the most comfortable. For me, I know my flight/train/bus and my hotel/hostel. Everything else I decide once I get there. What to see and do changes as soon as you get there, so why try to plan it all when more than likely you'll change anyway?
