At 18 I walked with my brother from Barcelona into france, along the Cote d'azur into Italy to Genoa then across the Alps back to France and across to Le Havre. we only had £1000 between us so we slept rough most of the time and slept once or twice a week in a youth hostel to get a shower. so many good memories and experiences along the way and met some very kind people too. Highly recomend doing it if you have a spare couple of months.
