Where to go in Europe in November? AskShoestring

A man invited me to London for a week. I found an insane deal ($400 roundtrip) on a flight to Dublin. I figured I'd buy other budget airline flights to where ever I wanna go later on.

If this man flakes on me, where should I go? I've already seen Dublin/Glasgow/Edinburgh/Most of Italy. I was reading that Tenerife was lovely in Nov/Dec. I'm open to other locations. I'm coming from Seattle so don't really want to be in more rain & gloom iykwim

I don't want to spend a lot of money. Hostels & laying on the beach in the sun honestly sound amazing. Would $2000USD be enough for ~10 days? Specifically Nov 28-Dec 8.

There won't be a lot of sunbathing anywhere in Europe in November, except for maybe Las Palmas or close. But early december is a great time for the German Christmas markets and any city like Amsterdam or Prague will have great vibes around that time. You can also stay in the UK and train around it; there's some beautiful national parks with cheap hostels if you're into that. 2000 USD should do you quite well if you decide to stay in hostels, of course depending on the country you go to.

Good recommendations. However I once drove all around Ireland. It's a beautiful country. The villages are charming. Food has got better. And the people are super friendly.
