I've had this post open in a tab for days and kept forgetting to reply. FAIL.

Anyway, of course I'm still interested! :D I have to work during the day, obviously, but we could meet up in the evening.

As for how much money you'll need for ten days in Europe... it kind of depends? I guess in order to get around you'd need to plan around 10 Euro per day for public transport (at least in Berlin, I'm not sure about Munich and Copenhagen, but assume it would be about the same.) Then there's food - most restaurants will take credit cards, but fast food places and smaller supermarkets might not. I could tell you the average prices if you tell me some things you think you would want/need to get? If you plan on going out, admission to clubs is usually 5-7 Euro, and drinks in clubs and bars are somewhere around 1,50 - 2 Euro for a glass of water (slightly more for juices and soft drinks), 2,50-3 Euro for beer and slightly more for wine, and between 5 and 10 Euro for cocktails and longdrinks - that's all Berlin prices, though, it's definitely somewhat higher in Munich, and I don't know about Copenhagen. Coffee in coffe shops starts around 2,80 Euro. Touristy places like museums differ a lot - some are free, or free on certain days, but usually you'd pay somewhere between 5 and 10 Euro in entrance fees. They might take credit card, though, I'm not sure.

Personally, for a 10-day-trip where the basic getting-around (i.e. train tickets) and accomodation is already taken care of, I probably wouldn't take more than 200 Euros, 300 max, but it depends on how much you plan to eat out and the touristy things you want to do, and how much you plan to spend on souvenirs and the like.
