As long as you're not American, North Korean, or Taliban, you should be fine. Otherwise, there may be people who want to fight you.
I describe myself as a little dose of toxic masculinity.

did you travel with Freccia Rossa or Italo ? Those are the main high speed lines but they are more expensive which isn't the best for a group of friends |
Mostly Freccia Rossa, Intercity once and the rest were regional trains. Never heard about Italo before honestly.
They were very affordable and quick. Certainly cheaper than Deutsche Bahn.
Milan - Turin : Freccia Rossa 14€ per person
Rome - Florence : Freccia Rossa 22€ per person
Florence - Pisa : Regional train 8.40€ per person
Florence - Venice : Intercity 28.50€ per person
Venice - Bologna : Freccia Rossa 19€ per person
Bologna - Rimini: Regional train 9.50€ per person
In Germany the lowest fare for the high speed train is 19€, but most of the time you can't find anything below 29€.
You're cutting it very close with Bran on the 31st and then Rome on the 1st of November...I don't know where you have your flight from, but it'll probably be a really sustained sprint for you.
If you land in Bucharest - most likely -, you'll be about 4 hours away from Bran Castle, by car. To be fair, you'll probably have some time to walk around Brasov and then go to Bran. I recommend eating and partying in Brasov, as well as accomodations. Since you're there and if you'd like something a bit more spectacular to see by comparison to Bran, you could take a train / car to Sinaia and see Peles Castle, or to Sighisoara, all of which should be manageable in a day.

Yeah we rented a car for Romania. I think Our flight out is at noon on teh 1st of November in Bucharest. So, we basically have 2 days in Romania, and Peles looks awesome too. I think we can make a stop in sighisoara as well.
Errorist76 said: Nice list. If you want bars and clubs you should add Berlin to your list ;) |
Yeah we really wanted to but there's just not enough time T_T
Turkish said: It hurts looking at that list, all that travelling and moving around so fast in such a short time, damn. |
Yeah, I get bored very easily though. Like some others said, at a point it's all the same stuff just in different countries.
SvennoJ said: In Amsterdam stop by here to get some fries. I used to get them for lunch whenever I could, best fries in the world |
I am making a note of this, thanks!
SuperNova said: Dude you're rushing it. From your list I gather that you're probably not much into hiking, taking the scenic route, gorgeous landscapes and rural towns and villages (God, you find the BEST fucking bread in little french and spanish villages. They usually still have a genuine baker with a fucking wood fired oven.), so you'll probably be fine with your pace but you're cutting out the best part imo. Also since most of your vacation will be spent on planes probably, be prepared to be exhausted and tired a lot of the time. |
We pretty much only want to see versailles and the eiffel tower. Plus we'll be staying with friends so they can show us some spots. The main thing I want to see though is the Parisian catacombs.
Also, we are going to be doing a bunch of hiking too.
Peh said: Stay away from people trying to sell you stuff on the streets. I've noticed these people in italy and france. They don't exist in germany, though.
And wtf? No Berlin? The future capital of Europe :P |
haha I know. But I'm going again next summer, for iceland, scotland, and germany.
Dallinor said: Those are some quick stops in a lot of locations. Will probably be tiring, but exhilarating moving around so much. Thursday will be quiet in some places, busier in others. Friday will be busy everywhere. It depends what type of scene you like, but South William Street has an eclectic mix of venues (try South William Bar or Pygmalion). Temple Bar is full of tourists, but also quite good as it has a mix of different traditonal and modern bars, also a gay club called The George. I'd recommend moving to a few different locations throughout the night to find a spot you like, as everything is pretty much within walking distance. I've always found the best nights in Dublin to be when you only have a vague plan, and let the night take you where it goes. Some of the bigger clubs are on Harcourt Street, next to Stephens Green, but they tend to be a younger crowd and a bit wild, again it really depends what you're looking for. |
Thanks, yeah, I've heard temple bar was a good area. And we're definitely going to trinity college. We figure we're going to be doing a lot of wandering around and bar hopping in dublin.
ClassicGamingWizzz said: If you go to prague you need to go at least one time to Karlovy lazne club dude. Just leave your hotel in praha, go to the center of the city, stop the hottest czech girl you can find, ask her for help to find the best clubs and she probably go with you and show you all the night life. Do this and thank me later. |
Good advice, thanks I'll write it down.
