Best places to go for 2 weeks during Xmas 2021? We're thinking europe (austria), but curious to hear what other recs fishbowl has. We want to do a city trip over beach/ski/nature as we're doing many of them during covid. We're also on the assumption that europe will be reopened but east asia may not be

Portugal is the other option we're think about, but again, totally open to other ideas

Last January I did berlin, Hamburg, and Copenhagen for three weeks or so. Definitely was lovely! I love Austria and also highly recommend slovenia

The Christmas markets in some areas of Europe are really lovely - look at Munich and Prague for example. But that would not take up 2 weeks so why not do half city and half ski?

If you're thinking Austria I'd also highly recommend Northern Italy. It's super close and amazing. We did a road trip through the Dolomites (Trenton, Bolzano, Ortisei, Cortina) and it was amazing. Also a day's drive from Milan/lakes
