A huge bonus of travel in Europe is how close together many of the countries are. It’s easy to travel around by car, bus, train or flights and it’s easy to combine visits to a couple of countries within one trip! For example, a flight (runway to runway) from London Stansted (UK) to Amsterdam (Netherlands) is less than 30 minutes!
Peak travel months are during the summer (June – August), when the weather is warm and the days are long. During the winter months (Dec – February), the climate varies. For example Iceland has close to 20hours of darkness a day and lower temperatures, yet the south of Spain still experiences mild weather. I have lived in Europe for most 30years of my life!
🏢Major cities include: London (UK), Barcelona (Spain), Dublin (Ireland) and Lisbon (Portugal).
