80s,90s were so loose. We used just buy a plane ticket to a random country abroad. No other plans, no reservations and it always worked. I only once had to sleep in a train station. If we couldn't get into youth hostel, we would find some back street 0 star hotel that we could afford. Stayed in a few brothels by accident but met some interesting people and had our minds broadened.
