So I'm studying abroad in Dublin until Christmas. My friends and I are going to book our first few getaways very soon. Here is the list of places we want to go, not including trips around Ireland: Paris London Glasgow/Edinburgh (I'm not a huge fan but it'll be a 5 euro flight and my friend has family there) Italy (I think Rome and Venice?) Depending on time/money, we have also been throwing around the idea of going to one or two of these places (in no particular order): Prague Spain (Barcelona?) Greece Budapest Bratislava Croatia Amsterdam Berlin Most of these trips would be Thursday-Sunday, varying slightly depending on RyanAir costs, minus one in late October that is a little longer due to a bank Holiday which I think we are going to do Italy for. I only know a little bit about these places so any suggestions would be amazing. I probably left out some really cool places too. The goal is doing it cheap but still hopefully going to some really cool and memorable places, since I'm sure we won't be able to make it back out here for at the very least a few years. If possible I'd like to at least do 1 place where we can live like kings for a weekend with the exchange rate because prices (especially booze and eating out) have been loving us over in Dublin.

Is Rome alright to visit in early December? We would save 60 or so euro each on flights that weekend instead of our originally planned weekend in October.

I'm from the US but now I'm living in Germany, and I know several people from other countries here. For example, last night we were talking and the Russian guy said he'll ask his parents to bring some Russian caviar for us next week when they come to visit. My parents are sending me my glasses in a small box that has some extra room to fit something small, but I can't think of what to tell them to send that I wouldn't really be able to find here in Germany. Just quickly off the top of my head in Ireland I can think of: black beans, cilantro, apple cider (they have hard cider everywhere but not the delicious kind we are used to in America), salt water taffy. I'm sure there are a lot more. Anything related to Mexican food has been pretty difficult.
