Need advice from fellow Canadians....preferrably girls but all advice is acceptable

Hey Canadians, I'm planning on going on the Euro escapade tour in sept. i'm leaving from Toronto and i'm travelling alone. I need some major trip advice. I've visited the message boards but I find a lot of the questions i can't really relate to and i want to be certain about the advice i take. I was hoping that i would be able to speak to some of you to find out how you did your trip (i.e, how you took your money, your luggage etc) it's just easier when i get advice from a fellow canadian as i can relate more, and if you're a girl then it's even more better!! and if you did a tour roughly this long (mine is 27 days long so tours 22-37 days long)that would be golden.
please msg back
thanks!!
