When it comes to picking the right holiday destination, it can be a bit daunting to find the perfect place that fits everyone’s desires, needs, interests and budgets. If you’re travelling with friends, you want to be sure to pick the ideal place to go that has a bit of everything to suit everyone in your party, and if you’re travelling with kids, you want something that will be family friendly. That’s why we’ve put together this handy travel guide to Europe with the best countries for awesome getaways for anyone from ages eight to eighty. You can score cheap flights to Europe easily as well, making it a perfect, budget conscious place for all. Check out our favourite countries in this useful list.

France

France is a beautiful country with some amazing food and wine. If you like trying different dishes, France is the place for you. Think fresh baguettes with real butter and fresh ingredients on sandwiches. Paris, the capital, is a bustling, sprawling city with numerous sights to see and areas to explore. One of the most unusual is the Parisian catacombs, located under the city. The usual haunts of the Eiffel Tower, Sacre Coeur church and the Arc de Triomphe and the Champs Elysées are popular tourist attractions and are likely to be busy and crowded, but worth it if you like doing the tourist thing. 

Outside the city, try to get out to Bordeaux for some wine tasting, or head down to the French Riviera for sun, sea and sand. The beaches at Normandy in the north will herald some seriously interesting World War 2 history to learn about, but if you want something a bit more… intense, check out the village of Oradour sur Glane, a town which the Nazis razed, leaving only a handful of survivors.

Czech Republic

The Czech Republic (sometimes known as Czechia) is a beautiful country with amazing things to see and do. Prague is the most popular spot for many travellers, with castles, museums and beautiful squares to just sit back, relax and enjoy people watching. Karlovy Vary in the country’s northwest is a beautiful, alpine spa town that is a fantastic respite from the demands and crowds of the big city. 

Want something unique and a bit weird? Catch the train out to Kutna Hora to see the Sedlec Ossuary – a church which was said to have soil from the Holy Land spread through its graveyard, increasing its popularity for burials to such a degree that mass exhumations of skeletal remains were conducted and the bones stored in parts of the church until it reached such a point they began to make decorative chandeliers, wall hangings, pillars and more from the bones of those formerly buried here. 

Greece

When it comes to amazing places to visit, Greece is top of our list. With dozens of stunning islands to explore and a mainland that is rich and rife with history, you can’t go wrong with this amazing place. For the best islands, check out Kefalonia’s stunning azure waters, rugged hillsides and lush greenery; Crete for interesting historical palaces full of myth and mystery as well as beautiful beaches and quaint little towns with charming back streets; Corfu for delicious food including olives and seafood with a backdrop of fortresses in Corfu town and the likes of Rhodes, Zakynthos and Kos for a mix of hectic nightlife and laid back beach afternoons. 

On the mainland, don’t miss the incredible historical sites of both Delphi where an oracle used to be questioned about the future, and the strange but beautiful Meteora with its monasteries on sheer cliffs overlooking the valley floor below. Food wise, don’t miss souvlaki – we promise you will love it as much as we do. Think Greece is expensive? Don’t worry – you can definitely do it on a budget!

Spain

Spain is a beautiful country with amazing weather and so many unique cities, towns and villages to visit. Rent a car and go on a road trip to visit as many as you can. The Costa Brava is a particularly beautiful region with the likes of Tossa de Mar being ideal for those looking for a bit of resort life without the resort crowds. Visit the castle on the hill overlooking its beaches and bay before strolling through the back streets of the old town, stopping along the way for paella, delicious Spanish beers or wines and a spot of people watching. Head to Barcelona to take in its artistic streets and the impressive Parc Guell, Gaudi’s house and the Sagrada Familia. 

So if you’re looking for a great area to visit this year (or any time in the future!) consider Europe. The nice thing about Europe is that with so many of the countries being only a short flight away from each other, you can easily visit more than one place on a trip that is a couple weeks in length. So what are you waiting for? Get your tickets booked today!

Top 5 Tips To Find Your French Soul Mate

French men have always been captivated by women around the world. They might not be the most handsome around in Europe, but there is a certain aura of “je na sais quoi” about their personae which radiates a sense of being more to their charm than just being eye candies. Whether it is their Parisian fashion sense combined with native etiquettes or their eloquent French accent, we cannot know. What we do know, however, is that this makes them extremely irresistible for women. So, the question arises, how should women actually go about finding their French date? While a French dating app or a website may be of great help, it can only aide you in spotting your desired French man. An insight into what can make him desire you is more important. Roses Only has devised some tips that will help you in finding your soul mate in this modern dating age. These tips would also be helpful if you are already dating a lucky French man and want to exchange vows with him.

Dress Appropriately

The first thing that differentiates a French man from others is his outfit. A Parisian is known for having no competitor worldwide for fashion sense. To match his sense of distinction and elegance you need to dress as per his expectations. This will assure him the striking mutuality between you two. Add a foreign tint to your dressing while maintaining their traditional fashion sense, and you are sure to turn some French heads around!

Be Confident

The undefined aura of French men that differentiates them from others is hard to interpret. But its perception comes from the fact that they love to look directly in your eyes. In fact, it is considered bad manners if you do not make an eye contact. Also, looking into the eyes manifests your confidence. This confidence conveys your sincerity towards continuing the relationship. Never invest in a relationship unless you are confident about it.

Converse With A Sense Of Humor

Generally, we want to spend life with the person who can converse well since it’s only via talking and sharing that we understand the other person and his needs. Similarly, you can never hate the one, with whom you laugh. Therefore, a French man will always prefer someone with whom he can talk about everything be it food, fashion trends, sex, wine or anything else in the world. Also, it always feels great to be with someone who make your tummy tremble with laughter, so it would be prudent to develop good a sense of humor

Smile More

Smiling develops a positive vibe which, in turn, makes you more sociable. As you smile, your eyes look radiant and its spark shows how good you are feeling. Be it French or any other man, he will always want to be with someone who feels good about herself. To have a smiling face of a soul mate is the dream of all, so practice this as it will bear good results not only for your relationship but also for your personality. Of course, you do not have to be unnatural about it.

Be Strong

French women are known to be strong and energetic. If you aren’t French, your dream of having a French soul mate will only materialize, in most of the cases, if you are emotionally strong and physically active. The more spirited your French man perceives of you, the more are your chances to develop a strong and everlasting relationship with him. You must make your man know that how comfortable you are in his company and how you two can be good fit for each other.

Do Not Rely On Make Up/Foundation

French men, like most other men, prefer their women to have smooth and unblemished skins naturally. If you do not have a flawless skin, use a good skincare product and reconsider eating habits. While a little make-up here and there is recommended, do not use unnatural amounts of foundation to hide your actual skin tone and texture.

Be Fit

Be it French or any other, men prefer physically fit women as much as women would prefer fit and strong men. Although you do not need a super model figure to attract a French man, a consistent workout routine is good enough to not let him feel unattracted toward you just because of your physique. You do not have to worry about the hassle of going to the gym daily, there are plenty of workout routines that you can follow and carry out in the comfort of your home.

Do Not Rush

Try not to take a shortcut into bed with him. Keep your integrity and develop a chemistry first to make sure he wants you too. Men love courtship as much as women do. It helps both of you to know each other better to make a more informed decision about continuation of the relationship.

Learn French

It might not be necessary to be able to talk to your French man in his language but it is definitely a plus when you can flirt in one of the sexiest languages with some of the finest men. Romance in French only adds to the intensity of the moment. This will also exude a feeling of devotion and willingness to continue with the relationship from your side.

Keep Your Identity

While being able to communicate in their native language and living up to their standards of fashion and style are recommended, keep in mind that most French men, just like all other normal humans, love to explore and know about other cultures and traditions. So, if you are a foreign woman looking for a French date, make sure that he gets to learn from you about the society you represent and the traditions and values it is known for. In fact, to make him truly fall for you, you should make certain you are not just another French woman for him.

Whether you are looking for a French man, or just any other guy, these tips are sure to help you get your soul mate.
