tbh Europe is always a target, tourist cities in europe may never really be safe again. it was very strange going to barcelona right after the attacks. like 2 weeks after.


The chance of it being you is still outrageously low but in a major European tourist city its always going to be a possibility

1.2 billion tourists moved around Western Europe in 2016, with 300 terrorism deaths then. that is, you have about a 1 in 4 million chance to be killed by an aloha snackbar in Western Europe. even if all incidents occured in France, which receives 80 million visitors on average, the odds of dying would still be something like 1 in 265,000. more likely that you get stabbed to death in a dark Vancouver alley tbh. e: also assuming ISIS had found a way to kill only tourists, hehe

If you're there 8 weeks where all do you intend to go besides the handful of places you listed? If you're going to the Czech Republic it would be a shame to train right through Germany and not see Berlin or Munich. I see you're going to Prague which is awesome, Prague was a really unique city. And the Czech Republic is (was when I was there) cheap as fuuuuuck, like ~$1 beers at bars. Amsterdam also a cool place to go.

If you're looking for more stops, I'd personally recommend these places. Some of my favorite spots in Europe: Munich, Berlin, Salzburg (Austria), Barcelona (Spain), Canz (France - Normandy Beaches), Florence (Italy), Vatican City... well theres a handful off the top of my head. If you have any interest in specific ones I can tell you what we did and saw there.

Cant believe you have no interest in seeing Germany. Personally my favorite country in Europe because of the food, beer and historical sites. Going to a concentration camp was one of the most interesting and sobering experiences of my life. Drinking beer out of big steins in massive beer halls was also another highlight.
