I currently have 6 trips planned or mostly planned: Pecs, Hungary; Paris, France; Transylvania, Romania; Prague, Czech Republic; Venice, Italy and Vienna, Austria; and Berlin, Germany.
However, Krakow, Poland is giving me some problems. I can get from Krakow back to Budapest by bus (www.orangeways.com), and I found a good hostel on hostelbookers.com. But I can't get to Krakow for under $250. That's out of my budget for a 2-3 day trip. This is frustrating because I really wanted to go there.
After LOTS of researching, I discovered www.wizzair.com. I wish I'd known about it sooner, because it has affordable, even cheap, flights to places that I never thought I could afford to go to, like Spain, Turkey, and Sweden, for example. Unfortunately, because it's air travel, and airplanes take a lot of time because you have to get to the airport super early for security and stuff, my 3-day weekends probably cannot handle trips to these places. I'll probably explore the website to entertain the possibility, but it looks like I'll be planning some day or weekend trips to places in Hungary instead.
There are lots of little towns accessible via the Danube, as well as some by HEV. I also think it would be cool to go down to Lake Balaton when it gets warmer. My Frommer's guidebook has lots of possible day trip itinerary options, which will be useful.
Before I start gallivanting across Europe, I have a doctor's appointment early tomorrow morning to make sure that I'm not sick, because I keep waking up feeling dizzy/feverish, which is really strange.
This weekend is the trip to Pecs! (with an accent on the "e")
