Krakow was beautiful in September really warm and such a beautiful city
Little pricier would be lisbon. About 20 min uber into city centre. So much to see from the coast to amazing historic architecture. If you have bad knees avoid as its all hills and the paths are tiny tiles so very slippery |

Lisbon on is amazing I think it's the oldest city in Europe. I love Al fama and flea market area, Also the LX Factory area is so cool. every airport has regular busses to the centre. Lisbon transfer is only €1.80 & faster than Uber as they have better routes |

"Will have to give a look.
Had not considered Birmingham, what’s the attraction?
Canals, Chinatown and historical areas of old bullring and jewelry quarters. "
Google the Telly Savalas advert for Brum, it's like a parody. But it's real |

To be fair i landed late at night and was my first ever solo trip so was a little nervous using public transport. Id do it now though.
The flea market is gorgeous. Nothing will beat sintra though such beautiful and stillness even though it was so busy. The views too.
I cant remember what its called but also went to the most western point on continental Europe was a beauty too |

In the west. |
I really like Malaga, as well as the e other southern Spanish cities.
Malaga is easy to get to and the airport is about 20-30 minutes from the city.
It is fairly flat and has 2 long beaches although they aren’t the best.
No matter what city I go to I always do a free walking tour as they are a great way of seeing the city with a guide and other people. |
