    It depends of you are looking for cities or something more adventurous/outdoors and how much time/money you have

    if I was you and had the time I would travel down the coast of Italy to Bari and get the boat to Patras in Greece (or ferry from venice to Patras) and travel up through Greece via Albania, Montenegro (maybe Kosovo if I had time), Bosnia, Slovenia, and through Austrian Alps to Prague.

    I'd suggest you skip Croatia

    The slovenian Alps are amazing but skip Lake Bled and go further North to Bohinj

    We had a amazing time in Bosnia - such an intense history e.g. standing on the Bridge where Franz Ferdinand got shot and World War 1 kicked off from and the train from Sarajevo to Mostar was one of the best in Europe.

    Other obvious eastern places would be Budapest (not that pleasant anymore especially when you encounter British stag parties - same in Prague), Krakow etc.

    • Bosnia sounds amazing.futuremongolian
