Europe, soon.

I get a lot of questions on when would be the best time to visit Europe.

Generally, between April to June (the "shoulder" season) would be the best, it is when you can have a decent weather (Not too hot or cold), average crowd and lots of daylights (for photo shooting).

I am lucky enough.

I will be travelling for work to UK this April, and I took the chance to have a post honeymoon with my wife. (As she has been bugging me on Europe for quite a while now).

If you think planning for a trip to Krabi is suicide.

Then, planning for a trip within European continent would be like banging your head on the wall, immerse yourself in petrol, burn yourself and then finish it off by jumping off a 30 storey building.

The very first thing you must realize when planning for an Europe trip, apart from your money, SPARE YOUR ANNUAL LEAVES.


Anyone thinks that you can have a 4 days 3 nights trip to Europe, you need a doctor.

(Theoretically it can be done, but your itinerary can be as good as sleep on the plane, stopover in the airport for duty free shopping and finally take a return flight back to Malaysia).

Secondly, knowing what you want to achieve. (Historical sites? Scenery? Food?)

After a painstaking research, me and my wife has decided on this "minimum" route. (Exclude UK).

Amsterdam-Paris-Switzerland-Rome, Italy.

We have tried to squeeze in a little bit of culture, buildings, and a sight seeing for this trip.

4 different countries in 2 weeks probably would be just nice and sufficient.

Amsterdam and Switzerland are always be the top recommendation based on the feedback from friends who travelled to Europe before.

The only let-down of this trip would be I will miss the chance to watch Man Utd in action in Old Trafford!

Anyway, stay tuned for more stories and photos on our Europe Travel!
