What costs did you forget when planning your DiscoverEU trip?
Quote from SUMA on 2026-09-15, 10:51When planning a trip, accommodation and food usually come to mind first. But what about local transport, laundry, luggage storage or getting from the station to your hostel?
For each cost, I would write down the amount and who covers it. The standard DiscoverEU pass does not cover accommodation and living expenses. If you travel through an Inclusion project, ask the organisation what is covered and whether you need to pay anything first and get reimbursed later.
In SUMA’s project materials, participants are asked to plan costs together and keep receipts. It is easier to check the budget during the trip than to work it out afterwards.
