European Break after Brain Haemorrhage
Hi all,
I'm (27M) looking for a shortish getaway (4-6 days) in Western Europe, where I hope to decompress somewhat after two surgeries on my brain. I'm fluent in French and Italian, so conversing isn't a problem (brain injury notwithstanding!) in the respective speaking countries, but I'm just looking for some outside input.
I'd lie to go somewhere I speak the language, but that's not essential. I can't drive at the moment, and I need somewhere with good public transport links. I LOVE Portugal, especially Porto, but I'm a bit concerned about getting help should I need it. Do you think it'd be an issue in Portugal or Spain?
I'm considering:
Pisa/Toscana, Ferrara, or Bologna
Spain: Córdoba or Barcelona, but open to most places as long as they're not too touristy
Prague
Belgium: Antwerp or Brussels but Brussels is pricy for accommodation
Should I be looking further afield?
Not considering Budapest; had a week-long meh/bad time there at Christmas last year...
I've found that I'm not as impulsive as I was before, and have had a bit of a knock to my confidence...
