Wanna get away from it all? Afraid it will cost you an arm and a leg to check out more of Europe in between teaching jobs?

Or would you like to ride across Europa in the passenger seat of a BMW, while watching the train in your rear view mirror? And what would you say if I told you it would all be half the price of that train ticket? Well it is. Try Town to Town ride sharing agency. It's a common practice in Germany.

France and Holland for drivers to fill their cars with passengers needing rides in the same direction, and now you can catch it from Prague as well. After paying a small fee to the agency, you pay just 1 crown a kilometer the rest of the way!

This means you can go to Amsterdam for 1299 Kc, Berlin for 522Kc, Munich for 592 Kc and any other city the Town to Town drivers make offers for. You can see the daily selection at www.spolujizda.cz and they often have round trips so you can get away and get back for cheap, as well as fast.
