"The screenplay was based in part on his experiences travelling through Europe (which he also refers to in Victor's European trip in "The Rules of Attraction"). "

Don't think this is true, believe the text is lifted verbatim from the Brett Easton-Ellis novel of the same name.

Actually, it's not verbatim from the novel. It's quite different. I've read an interview, though I can't remember where (it might have been off of Avary's site, or maybe it was from the DVD commentary), where Avary stated that he wove the diary of his own European trip in with Brett's and then with Kip Pardue's. Combined all three.
