The Interrail Pass doesn't cover travel within cities in most places. You might get lucky if they have a mainline rail system that passes through but buses, metros, trams etc will need to be covered as an extra cost. This is one of those quirks that can catch people out so at least you are forewarned.

Instead stick to flowy and stretchy materials – the kind that you can dry on a washing line and never have to iron. Jeans are super slow to dry and smell really gross when damp, so stick to dark colours – this will avoid having to wash them all the time when you inevitably spill Rioja on them.

Less Risks of damage: Unlike a suitcase, a light weight backpack wont tend to have any moving parts (apart from zips) This means you are automatically limiting the risk of damage to your luggage/ I.e broken wheels on cobbled streets etc. When interrailing, you're going to be on the move quite a lot.

If you want to avoid any of these results, using a backpack instead of a shoulder bag can be the answer.

Carry-on and personal items must be kept with you, stored in overhead racks, under seats or designated baggage areas.
