I was on the island of Rab in Croatia. Clearest sea water I've ever seen and you can see the Milky Way at night. Great nature in general; I also visited the Plitvice waterfalls park.
Luxembourg can be a bit posh. The capital is a nice modern city with some renowned art galleries and some big city parks placed amid the urban landscape. Went to a jazz festival once while there, and another time a comics festival in the suburbs. The people there speak three languages (Luxembourgish, German, French), most also understand/speak English quite well.
I've been to Bruges in Belgium because I was into that movie "In Bruges" at the time and it holds up to how it's presented in the film (cozy little streets, some really old buildings, some cool Flemish art). Also dope ass waffles.

Good list, Bee!
I've been to:
UK (live in Englnad, and I've been to Wales, Scotland, and NI)
France
Republic of Ireland
Italy & Sicily (ok Sicily is technically part of Italy but it feels quite separate)
Belgium
Greece (not the mainland, just Crete)
Very briefly Germany
Portugal
Spain
Czech Republic
Hungary
Canary Islands (again they technically count as part of Spain but they're nowhere nearby lol so I'm counting them separately)
I feel like I'm missing something but I can't recall what.
Of the ones I've been to which you haven't, I would recommend Greece, the Canary Islands, and France the most. Crete was just amazing, the countryside & towns were both lovely, and the food was delicious. And France has some really lovely places; I'd especially recommend the region around the Gorges du Tarn.

Where have you been in the Netherlands Blake Sabbath, and what would you recommend? For Italy, every city is amazing (and I haven't really been to the south yet), but check out Bologna if you can as it's often overlooked and has a really cool vibe |

For Italy, every city is amazing (and I haven't really been to the south yet), but check out Bologna if you can as it's often overlooked and has a really cool vibe I was in Amsterdam, and I unfortunately can't remember much of what there was to do at the moment as I was pretty young at the time, although I remember it being really beautiful. It wasn't there when I was there but I've heard there's a VR cinema there now. |

My Portugal flights got cancelled  When me and my friend get drunk, we talk about going on a trip to Russia but I think we're too scared to go as two young girls really. Has anyone been before? |

I bought flights to Copenhagen yesterday (£30 return), so hopefully going 4th - 6th of Feb! I've never been to Denmark before, so super excited to visit a new European country.
Also me and a new friend are hopefully visiting Romania in March!
