Due to public pressure (SlaYo ), I'm posting this so early. Well on the other hand, europe is kind of a big place and even deciding the country will probably take some time. And it's good to let people know to save money and stuff.

Next year it's time to have the first longer, vacation-like, WC/EC-like meeting for us Europeans in this community. It's pretty sure this will be happening, but where and when has only been discussed a few times (on IRC), and there hasn't really been any general consensus.

So, please suggest a country where you would like to head. It can't be the Netherlands (about every meeting thus far has been there), Finland (I, as the selfish planner want to travel somewhere) and preferably not your home country (to make it feel more like a vacation, not just a bunch of people visiting a guy who shows them his home city. Also I guess many would just suggest their home country without much thought of what you can do there etc). It should be a city where it's easy to get by train and/or plane, or plane and bus.

Please only suggest if you think you could make it financially. It's of course hard to know if you could really come, since the dates aren't decided upon and you most likely haven't planned your next summer yet.
(Bad) estimations of the total cost per person, for a 1-week stay:

• Travel — ~120-180€ (For a round trip by plane, if bought months in advance and using cheapness airlines. Significantly more expensive if bought close to the day of travel, or with "normal" airlines. Naturally, the destination can also happen to be near your country and you could just take a much cheaper train trip instead. If it's necessary to take the train from near the airport, add some 50€. Bus tickets to a nearby city won't cost much.)
• Hotel costs — ~110-150€ (per person for a week. A 3-person room which costs 55e-75e per night, six nights.)
• Food — ~40-120€ (This hasn't really got any upper limit. I'm thinking some 40€ would probably be the minimum if we buy food from stores and possibly cook some of it too, and 120€ if somebody wants to eat semi-nicely out every day. Why would somebody do that? I don't know. (We would probably go out eating a few times anyway))
• Activities — <80€ (Not really a point of estimating this, but I doubt more than 80€ per person will be needed for the fun stuffs.)

Consider this a very bad approximation, but if you know you'll have some 350€ by next summer and want to spend (much of) it on an awesome vacation, you "could make it financially". Subtract 100-150€ if you know you won't have to take the plane.

Suggestions, please! For me it doesn't really matter where or to which country, but I'd like to go to eastern central europe, since I've not been there.

Edit: I checked some plane ticket prices more, and it doesn't really seem as expensive as I had put there.
