Europe Vacation Spots Post-COVID

WSO,

Like a lot of y'all, COVID robbed me of my summer before IB vacation / fuck off months. I've got about 3-4 weeks in between the end of my Analyst stint and the start of the PE Associate gig, and wanted to hit Europe for a couple weeks. Anybody been post-COVID, and have recommendations on cities / clubs / beaches for mid-twenties guys? Thanks!!!

 

When exactly are you planning to go? 

I’d do a week in Italy (high-speed trains are very good so you could easily do Rome+Florence+Milan+Venice in about 8/10 days); one in Greece for partying (Mykonos last summer was insane, no covid restrictions whatsoever). Then you could either hit other major cities (I’d say Amsterdam or Paris if you’ve never been, Germany is not that great imho) otherwise Ireland or Iceland if you’re into nature. If you're into clubbing, Budapest is cheap and has some nice spots
