So, I'm going to Europe next year to visit my friend living in Paris from next July to August. He's from America and has only lived in Paris for a short time. We plan on going to a few metal festivals such as Hellfest, Wacken, Bloodstock, and Download. We plan on going to Gamescom, if our university schedules allow for it. We plan on road/sea tripping. Countries we are going to Czech out: France Spain Germany (Possibly) Italy United Kingdom Norway Sweden Tell me where within these countries we should go and why, as well as places we should avoid at all costs. [u]Bonus points for nature destinations.[/u] If you think we should visit another country, that's cool, too. Any other events you think might be cool? Pls help guide me through your continent.
