2 weeks in Europe, where should I go?

[DrMetallica]

I am flying to London in two weeks, and I want to know what to do and more importantly, where to go. I would like to visit the Ministry of Sound & Fabric while in London, but other than that, I don't have any plans. I was thinking maybe Dubrovnik, Croatia, Bratislava, Slovakia or Florence, Italy? I will be travelling alone and probably only with a backpack, and will be using ryanair.com to get there. So please... where should I go?

 

[MrS]

Italy fo sho.
Cyprus

Football games. Even better if theres a derby. Nothing compares to it.

If you get the chance definitely check out Venice. I've personally never been there but people have said that it's the most beautiful city on Earth.

 

[Taviii]

Venice stinks like sh!t...

Great idea!!!!! How do I find out who's playing & when?

 

[Joe The Homophobe]

Go anywhere where there is a beach/coastal areas.

 

[Francisco d'Anconia]

Italy, definitely.

Amsterdam should be at the top of anyone's list. It's the ultimate European starter city for Americans. Everyone speaks English, everyone is friendly, European cafe culture, it's just a great all around city. Not to mention the laid back attitude towards lots of cool stuff

My way of thinking though is to hit as much of eastern Europe as possible before it all becomes the same as the rest. London, Paris, and Rome aren't going to change much in the next decade, but you can be sure some of the less developed countries will. Hungary, Romania, Poland, and maybe Slovakia are next on my list.

I guess he wants to see something he cant find in America.

Here are the greatest derbies on earth: http://www.footballderbies.com/

Some of them can be really dangerous but the thrill cant be compared to anything. Also dont forget that the World Cup is this year in Germany, the USA are qualified so you could go where they play, but also visit the regions (because every team usualy plays in different parts of the country).

 

[DrMetallica]

Buggers... the only game playing when I'm there is in Bulgaria.

 

[Taviii]

Shezz, the football campionships stop about 2 weeks before the World Cup.

 

[doctoroxygen]

Go to Nice.

They don't have Watford-Luton, thus they don't have the greatest derby on earth.

I'll be there May 11 - 27. But okay, how the feck do I see a game? I went here: http://www.arsenal.com/membership/article.asp?article=338115&title=Tickets and am so confused about the member thing?

Shezz: are you serious? Barnsley is just north of the Midlands in s. Yorkshire, no?

If you come to Florence, let me know, because that's where I live so we could go and have some sargin' together, man
it's a pretty small city (350.000 people here), with lots of arts and "decent" night life. The best thing about it is that the clubs are all in the central part of the town, so you don't need to take a taxi or rent a car to get there. Lots of tourists, mostly American and Japanese. Very safe city, you can go alone everywhere and still feel safe.

I've been in Prague on a school trip about a month ago and I had lots of fun, but I admit it's greatly overrated. The only thing that you can really notice about it is absinthe. You can find everything else in every medium to big city in Europe.

Budapest mate. Its the best place on earth. The women there are so ****ing hot.

Otherwise Barcelona is fantastic so too Dublin. I can't recommend Budapest enough though mate.

Barnsley is a shi* hole!

A buddy of mine told me this when we were in Prague. I can't really figure out what's so cool in there... I mean, I've never been there, but beside good-looking women (who you can find in Czech Rep., Poland and lots of other places too), what's so good about it? It's a pretty small city, with no popular club scene... Why do so many people like it?

Its not that small. Population yes only 2million but it would take you a good week to see all the sights as there are so many and spread out.

All Eastern European women are stunners be they poles, Czech, latvians, etc but I hear the Hungarians are ment to be the fittest overall. Something to do with all the different races that that ended up there over the years.

As for the club scene, I don't know if there are any major clubs playing new dance music as I havent been into the clubbing scene for a few years. the clubs we went to played a load of old shi*e but it was still a great laugh with about 90% of the women shagable.
