How Low Can You Go? Round Europe for 1p return (+ tax)

A travel writing that explores the furthest reaches of no-frill, high-thrills Europe.

---

Tom Chesshyre is on a mission: to visit a dozen destinations that he can't spell, can't pronounce and wouldn't have heard of if low-fare airlines didn't fly to them. Places like Szczecin, Poprad-Zakopane, Kaunas, Paderborn, Haugesund, Brno and Tampere. Squeezing into his no-frills seat, he enters a hidden world of ex-Solidarity leaders and ultra-cheap dentists in Poland; minus 50C ice-rooms in Slovakia; Esperanto lessons and big nights out in Lithuania. Along the way he learns about the 'New Europe', the collapse of the Iron Curtain, the expansion of the European union -- plus the fun you can have on a 1p flight.
