Hey gang, I'm a twentysomething guy living in LA. Been having travel fever lately so I'm considering an international getaway by myself over Thanksgiving since I get a built-in 5 day weekend. Could take a couple days off as well...where should I go? Initially I was thinking about Vancouver or just something simple but now that idea has expanded to Europe if it's cheap (thinking b/c the weather's not ideal)...Dublin and Brussels are a couple ideas I've been throwing around.
Is there someplace I'm forgetting or overlooking? Here are my requirements:
Want to be on a relative budget--spend less than $100 per day
I will probably stay in an airbnb
want to eat cheaply but sample local cuisine along the way
i can walk miles and miles but would be down for day trips by train n stuff...but love exploring gardens, zoos, parks, etc.
i'm gay so preferably somewhere friendly to that (ie. not russia)
Preferably somewhere i can travel by passport only (don't need addl visas n junk)
Let me know what you guys suggest! Thanks r/Travel :D
