Well it depends what season, but -


Italy - The north is excellent, very classy Venice is a MUST, also Rome is an amazing city, some of the vendors can rip tourists off though so be careful.

France - Simply beautiful, Paris is the most aesthetically-pleasing city in the world, excellent food great experience.

Croatia - Cheap and fantastic in the summer, lots of great clubs on the coast, make sure to go to Dubrovnik and the islands, especially Hvar which has an outdoor club called Carpe Diem which is excellent in summer..Lots of hot babes too for you guys :D

Greek islands, pretty similar to above but tourists have been going there for a while so dont expect it to be as cheap.

Outside of Europe - Singapore is a great city to experience, also go north to Thailand and Malaysia and experience the great cultures - its a lot of fun.

Then theres Australia, although its a bit boring head to Uluru, Gold Coast, Cairns, Melbourne and Sydney to get the best idea of this great country.

Hope this helps, im pretty well travelled so feel free to ask questions on any countries and ill try and help.

in australia if ur looking for classsy women, head for brisbane or the gold coast...if ur looking for euro girls head for sydney and melbourne...and if ur looking for a lil bit of everything come to perth...perth has great weather around 32 degrees in summer and has great beaches and hotels with views...australia is a great scenic country with many things to do...if night life is what ur after head to the more populated cities...they offer more better nightclubs and facilities...have fun dude :D

Man, u should go to Cancun, Mexico :)

a lot of fun there, its around 35 degrees celcius at any time of the year, nice ocean, nice pools, restaurants, and it is not as expensive as ppl might think it is.

Sure mate.

The best town/city in Croatia is Dubrovnik, it is the "jewell of the adriatic" and is a UNESCO heritage listed site.

http://www.photocroatia.com/wallpaper/Dubrovnik/DUBROVNIK_1_1024.jpg

Its a really beautiful city, the large walls around the perimeter go straight into the ocean, its amazing in the summer, and the women :clap2: :D :heart:

From Dubrovnik, it is really easy to access the islands. Must see islands are Korcula and Hvar.

Korcula -

Hvar -

http://www.adriatic.dk/RealE/places/Hvar.jpg

It is really easy to get to these places, ferrys are very cheap. The big advantage of Croatia is it is much cheaper compared to most countries in Europe, food is fantastic and the servings large for a fraction of the price of a small plate of pasta in Roma.

Other places worth a look on the coast are Split for the Diocletians palace, although most of the city isnt too flash the old part is very nice.

http://www.geocities.com/tamburica_vorarlberg/photo/croatia/big/split.jpg

This is the coast which is excellent in the summer, Dubrovnik is a great city for bars if youre into them, and nightclubs are great in Split/the islands.

Also, if you head north, you can see Zagreb, the city Elle Magazine voted the most beautiful city east of Paris -

http://www.pfranchini.ch/html/Pogled%20Zagreb.jpg

Zagreb has a lot to see culturally, and has great nightlife near lake jarun, which is pretty much outside the city centre. The most popular clubs are Aquarius and Piranha, and of course best to go on weekends.

Theres also an option i hear of getting on a "party boat" although im unaware of any info on it, its basically a boat where you get to party with beautiful women for a while :D

Getting around is easy, the roads are excellent if you go by car and there are many rail links.

The coast is the best, but if you have time go north - its very nice to see Zagreb, Varazdin etc with the castles and baroque-style architecture. Hope this helps and enjoy the destination which has been voted best destination by numerous magazines, national geographic and various travel shows. Hope this helps, if you have any questions let me know.

That's absolutely true. So if one wants to experience cold come here, Helsinki. Go ~1000 km north from here (Lapland) and it's even colder but also a fantastic winter.

In southern Europe is does rain, yeah. But I think rain doesn't make some famous cities of Europe worse. Maybe not better either but different. Winter and weather can make a city very different.

In Czech it also snows. It is definantly colder in Finland, but hey snow storm is a snow storm.
