[QUOTE="Goblyns Hoard, post: 2142255, member: 19970"] I have to recommend London - and not just because I live there, but because it's a truly great place. On the downside its big and crowded and may not be as hot as you want though in the summer we do get nice weather here. Plus all of the UK is available to you via train or plane (1 hr to Glasgow via Easyjet for pretty cheap prices if you find the right flight) so you can explore the rest of the UK while you're here. You'd get some shorter transport links from somewhere more central (Birmingham) but I think London has more going on locally that it'd be a better bet (not dissing B'ham but it doesn't have the same range of things to see) But if you want proper heat and a really nice country I'm going to recommend Croatia. Really stunning countryside, still pretty inexpensive and the 'touristy' side of it is just building up. Split is a very attractive place and the people are very friendly. Most people don't realise the war there was over 10 years ago and it's come on a lot since then. You can also travel into some of the oldest and most untouched areas of europe around there - going south through Serbia & Montenegro, Albania, Macedonia and into Greece. After that I'd go with somewhere like Barcelona or Madrid - and would recommend avoiding the southern areas of spain as they get filled up with some of the worst examples of english and german tourism. I'm told La Coruna on the Northwest tip of spain is very nice but have never been. Southern germany is also very beautiful so Munich has to be added. The southern germans are a lot more relaxed and friendly than their prussian cousins, and the Schwarzwald is very nice. Plus there's a lot of history going on down there and Heidelberg, Stuttgart, Vienna, Zurich, the Alps, Strasbourg, even Prague and Paris are all within striking distance for trips away. Ultimately it's going to depend on what you're planning to do there - see a lot of one city, see some of a country or see a little of a region. Is it pure travelling or a mix of work and play?
