EUROPE

Living in London, it’s easy to hop over the English Channel to Europe. That is why the lion’s share of articles on this website are about European destinations.

This is the most diverse continent on the planet, even within individual countries. You could wake up to coffee and croissants in a Parisian cafe and be feasting on Wiener schnitzel washed down with a Bavarian beer by nightfall.

Once you are on the European mainland, most of the major cities are connected by rail. If you are planning train travel, Interrail is the gift that keeps on giving.
