Well worth a visit…
Are you in need of a break? It’s only February but the strain of the new year could already be getting the better of you, so what better way to cure your work woes than a quick trip abroad?
The good people over at TravelSupermarket have compiled a handy little list of the coolest places you can visit in Europe, which should give you some ideas for a weekend away.
Bear with us, but they use terms like Hip Culture Outpost, Creative Capital, and Traveler Value to find out the overall Hip Hangout Score which sounds pretentious as hell, but they’ve come up with some pretty cool results.
Adam Groffman, from Travels of Adam, and UK travel blogger Emily Ray, from The Cosy Traveller, put together the list of the top ten trendy neighbourhoods to visit around Europe.
The pair broke down what’s great about each of the places into the best coffee shops, the most Instagrammable places and the mouth watering must eats/drinks.
