        Munich - Salzburg
        Veinna - Bratislava
        Copenhagen - Gothenburg
        Riga - Tallinn, etc etc

        The choices are endless, it's more about what you want to get from the break.

            Amsterdam is apparently good for single travellers, although a good idea to book things in advance as I gather the queues can get hectic. It's on my list of places to go next year, when it gets a bit warmer!

            There are also the German Christmas markets in a few months.

            Or Iceland if you fancy hot springs, treks, horse rides and snorkelling in icy waters. A solo-travelling friend of mine has just come back from there and she loved it.

              Why waste time with 2 countries in 3 days?

              Just pick one place and enjoy it for longer

                  I went for a long weekend to Istanbul at Easter - recommend it even with the riots (which appear to have subsided)
                  How fortunate for governments that the people they administer don't think

                    +1 or Vlinius. Any of the ex eastern block countries are a good choice if you like history,. They all have an old town with loads of culture and history.

                    I know it is a bit of stag haven now but you could try Krakow and book a trip round Austwitz as well. A really moving trip. We went on a rugby tour and even the hardest guys were moved by it. The town square and river side is gorgeous as well so not all doom and gloom.
