Now that i'm a few days in, I decided it was finally time to draw up a budget. It's my first time travelling with tight resources, every other time has always been short and without currency issues.
So the plan:
$15k AUD for the whole trip
To work out what this amounts to for daily spending, I figure that it will cost me about $1kAUD for misc things like suncream, replacing lost things, buying new things, etc. $4k for travelling within europe - this works out to $300 a week (ignoring the month for walking across spain where i really hope my feet can do all the travelling!) .
So that's 10k for food, entertainment and bedding. $83 a day - or £34. Yarrg. The hostel is £18 only leaving £16 for other things a day.
So thats the plan, now lets see if i can stick to it

Remember life gets way cheaper on the Camino, your choice of food goes down but most of the time you'll be spending less than 15 euro to bed down and less than 15 euro to eat for a day.
P.S Beware of bedbugs, they live in clothing and bedding and get passed on really easily. Hanging stuff out in sunshine kills them dead.
Also good luck and enjoy the hell out of it =)
I was in such a huge daze when I was in London that I really missed out on most of it.
