I suggest you try Swiss Air,they do fly to Singapore and i found that certain cities were cheaper compared to certain other airlines like SIA.

Nov is onset of the cold period. Europe backpacking is not difficult language barrier sometimes. Some countries, you will face racism. It all depends on where you are going. So cannot advice for everything because you were not specific on your country list. Anyways its very early to ask about this information. In addition, to complain about 22 years and never explore the world. There are people out there who has never gone out of their country all their lives. So be grateful you have the opportunity.

November isn't summer season...

Decide where you want to go, and then grab Lonely Planet guides to all those places and Berlitz phrasebooks. A lot of organisation is needed and there's no better time to start than now.

I've been to Finland myself and know a few things about other places.

Anybody went backpacking in europe before? Im thinking of doing it this nov...so being inexperienced and abit afraid to venture into backpacking alone because of the uncertainties, I probably would like to seek people who have been there done that or maybe even form a small group who are interested in going.

I feel i have been alive for 22yrs old and I have been never been able to explore the world. We live in only 1 tiny dot called singapore and there is such a HUGE world out there. My take is if I dun take the chance to explore the world at least for once, I probably would be too busy particpating in the rat race busy lifestyle in future.

CMon, anybody who got experiences in this?
