The Grand Adventure Supreme

It has been my goal/dream for a very long time to backpack across Europe. I don't mean a couple weeks to a few locations. No. I want to see it all! I'm just having a hard time deciding if I really want to see it all in one swoop, or if I want to split it up into two or three different ones. I would go with the latter, but I know that by the time the second/third ones roll around, I will want to revisit the places I've already been. If I go with the first option, I may end up on vacation burnout.

I already know some places that I want to visit, such as Sweden, Croatia, Germany, etc. (and yes, those are very vague), but I want to plan a specific trip that allows for certain time in places to see all that I want to see. Some people say I'm crazy for planning such an extensive trip, but if I don't start planning it then the trip will never happen. So what would you do to plan your trip? Where would you go? What specific things would you do?
