I agree with 2 earlier posters. I'd say to backpack around europe for a few months before you even think moving around like that on a more permanent basis. I'd also agree with the other poster who said you'd get assraped on the conversion from the dollar to euros.
You can try to travel around southeast asia (what I think that poster meant by EAST) to Thailand, Philippines, etc. That is probably a way bigger culture shock, but lots of americans seem to like it.
