		<title>Tip 9: Plan a little</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The Eurail Pass gives you the ability to jump on and off any train which can lead to spontanious decisions with divine results. But if it doesn't work out, you might get stranded in a town for a few hours more than you bargained for. Or you might arrive in a seedy station late at night. You don't want to spend your European vacation admiring the train stations' architecture. Or then again, you might. I don't know.]]></description>

		<title>Tip 8: Documentation</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Keep your passport handy. Because the Eurail pass is attached to your name and passport number, it's important to keep them both easy-to-access when you're on the train. I had my passport checked about one time in five when I was asked to produce my tickets. This isn't about border control, it's about ticket control.]]></description>

		<title>Tip 7: Beware private lines</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Not all train lines are part of the system. In fact, when I was travelling in Switzerland I ended up on a private line which cost me a whopping 120 extra euros. Make sure your train is covered by the pass or expect to pay for the consequences.]]></description>

		<title>Tip 6: Watch for seat reservations</title>

		<title>Tip 4: Is it worth it?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Before buying a Eurail Pass it helps to know how much you would spend on train travel without it. In some European countries, train travel is quite cheap and the day's journey might cost a fraction of the daily cost of your Eurail pass: Do your homework.]]></description>

		<title>Tip 1: What&#8217;s a Eurail pass?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[A Eurail pass is a time-limited rail pass which allows unlimited train travel in Europe for a set price. You can buy a general pass or location-specific passes, such as the ones for Britain or for the Benelux region. Time periods vary, but common lengths are 14 or 21 days. ]]></description>
