Can those of you that have travelled through eastern Europe for lengthy periods of time give me an idea of how much I should budget? I know it all depends on where you are and what you're doing, but it'd be cool to see some examples.

Most of my travels have been in western Europe, and for weekends, with the mentality that I have to live it up to the max, without a lot of thought on how much money I spend. Well I know I'll be changing my ways.

I'd like to spend more time hiking, camping (except I don't want to carry all the gear), and just hanging out with locals, really soaking in the culture wherever I am, without the time limits I've had in the past. I'm not sure just where to go yet, still trying to figure it all out. Wherever I can find the craziest adventure with the thinnest wallet, with some good nightlife occasionally but that's not the focus anymore. I'd really like to see all of eastern Europe, but spend more time in the cheaper places and outdoor/adventure activities. Any itinerary advice?
