Hi everyone,
1. flights.. find something in or near your budget that will get you there. You can also check Wizz Air for cheap flights around europe (although at off beat, near big city airports, like Orly instead of CGD in Paris) .. and they tack on fees, leave on certain days, but its a budget airline.
2. London. I did not get the london pass .. because the eye was closed, and I really only wanted to see the Tate (of which was included). Up to you. Get the oyster card for the tubes though.
3. Berlin. check point charlie was the highlight of sightseeing, and go to a beer garden.
4. Prague. most people say they will go for 2 days and stay a week.. I did! In the winter no less. The Rad is ... meeh okay. They charge admission to every part almost. The petrin tower is cool, jewish cemetery, The site of the velvet revolution, if you don't know the history hit the commy museum. and get an unfiltered beer at Capeau Rouge!
5. Rome. 4 days is good.
6. Expenses: hummm... the jerk gurus on here say pack half, double your budget. I would at least have some kind of access to an emergency fund. Like a credit card that you may or may not use for everything else. I always bring mine just in case .. I did have to leave OZ after 2 weeks of being there on a WH visa.
Hey
Have a look at the Busabout Website it's an Aussie hop on hop off bus through Europe for backpackers and it might help you plan your trip.

We flew into Munich and used it to travel through Europe and to the UK and then back to Europe.
It's good way to see Europe on a budget.
Have a great trip!
