I have spent a good bit of time in Europe both for work and vacation.

Have you been before? Do you like cities or more rural destinations? What is your comfort level with driving in foreign countries?

The wife and I are thinking of doing a Euro vacation within the next year or so. Probably Italy, maybe more.

I read the ---- posts about staying away from the big cities and going rural. And everyone across the net puts Paris as their Number One Disappointment.

The classic fuckparade looks like fun to observe (I'm too old to participate).

The Ukraine is racist, Romania is Gypsy HQ, and Greece is a toilet (allegedly). But there has to be some places to go which aren't McDisneyed but are also safe. You know?

Ukraine is racist. Pretty much all of Eastern Europe is racist.

The rest of Europe is too, but they hide it better. The Germans are so fukking ashamed of their racism that they are bending over backwards to not be racist, inviting in the entire 3rd world. It will likely be their end. sad.

Never been. The bucket list was the Isle of Man, Iceland, Estonia, Czechoslovakia, Greece, the Trans-Siberian Railroad, and maybe Hungary just because of the language's rep as the hardest language in the world to learn. I figure it'd be like sliding to a parallel universe to be in a room of native speakers. But whatever.

Definitely rural. Being in a city is cool, but I figure the temptation not to move outside comfort zones is too great.

Driving depends on safety.

Man, you have to define what you mean. Preferably with SFW pics.

With the internet, camwhores, instagram and Tinder, has the allure of naked bitches dropped for Millenials and Gen Z?

Nice photos, Rumps. Hope you had a good time.

Did you go after your cheating franchise got kicked in the nuts in Game 7? Or was your trip before that?

Rack the photos. And look at Coogs all dressed up on vacation.

Vacation for me is a suit free time given I wear them more often than not.

Then you should probably post them, BP. Left Seater and Coog's shared their wealth, and it was very good. Coog's made Paris look clean, Left Seater made Sweden look like a second home.

Where not to go?
I would start in the north and go south....

For me the best would be summer June 20th in Oslo or St Petersburg Russia June 20th
Longest sunlight of the year....it never gets dark.
St Petersburg Russia has Festival of the Light...but you don't speak russian
and I'll be honest...I would NOT go in eastern europe if I was black.
As a White person...Eastern Europe is AWESOME!
So.you should stay in norway or sweden...they love black people.
Amsterdamn....
Berlin....
Prague...
Amalfi Coast
Naples
Capri
Greek Islands
The mediterrian is best for you
All those coastial cities are great for afro americans

probably to be the safest...

either a viking river cruise
or a mediterriean greek island cruise..

Regarding safety: Yeah. No one wants to end up like the two young women beheaded in Morocco, or the bicyclists beheaded in Tajikistan -- or the two young Dutch women murdered in Panama. There is no safe backpacking/exploring discretely for women. The world sucks.

But the world is also beautiful. I'll still take your comment as a warning against Russia. :| Being American isn't a bit of plot armor, globally, anymore?

What did you like best about the Mediterranean? What do you like least?

Why is Eastern Europe awesome?

What happens during the Festival of Light?
