Portugal's decently cheap, and so is some of Eastern Europe, like Prague. I feel like with a budget, and two weeks you'll want to do some planning. Browse through the internet to get an idea of cheap accommodations in areas you're interested, or book cheap ryanair flights for getting around. Also, buy groceries and alcohol (if you drink) at grocery stores. A jar of peanut butter and bread can go a long way, as can 1 L of sangria for 64 cents!!

south spain is cheapest. start at valencia and work your way down. i could easily strech 650 euros over 2 weeks. thats 325 a week. you just wont be able to get pissed everynight.

Spain wasn't too expensive, i think 650EU would be plenty for two weeks there so long as you don't go crazy and blow it all on hookers and blackjack.
