If you could spend 1 summer living in 1 Euro. country near the beach,
and you were single and relatively young, which would it be.

No "I'd travel all around" responses please. Just if you needed to chose one place to live and perhaps work or go to school. Which country would it be of all the non-landlocked countries.

Being specific about where in the country is optional.

I can't decide which would be best between a whole bunch like

France, South of
Spain, Costa del Sol
Spain, Ibiza
Portugal
Italy,various parts
Greece, various parts
Croatia

what would be the best?

It's cheap!

Either that or somewher nice on the Baltic. I didn't see that you said the summmer. The Baltic is nice during the summer but a real bitch during the winter

2. Who the fuck would ever want to say I spent a summer in Bulgaria
not me.

I'm not really asking about if you could afford something or not, just say you weren't on a really tight budget.

8. Cote D'Azur...
Edited on Wed Mar-30-05 05:09 AM by Scooter24
I absolutely love the French Riviera. We occasionally vacation over there as a family when time permits - My father is drawn to their golf courses. Some of the best waters to sail and go yachting are found in Cannes and Antibes. Highly recommended!
