First solo Euro trip - help!
I leave for my first solo international trip in about a week (28 year old female from the US, I'm bilingual and speak both English and Spanish) and I'm starting to freak out! I'm going to London, Edinburgh, Rome, Florence, Barcelona, and Budapest. My dates are end of March/early April
I will be there for two weeks. Thankfully, I've already booked all of my places to stay but I'm starting to get nervous about traveling alone. There is just so much to do and see and my anxiety is starting to get the better of me. What is the best way to meet people? I chose to stay at Airbnb's instead of hostels, just because I am a very light sleeper and need quiet at night. Is there anything in any of these cities that I absolutely cannot miss? Also, food is very important to me and I travel to explore local cuisine haha - are there any places that I absolutely have to eat at?
So far I have the following tickets booked London (4 days) - Harry Potter Studio Tour - and I have a ticket to see Hamilton because I'm a huge fan. I was also thinking of going to StoneHenge but wasn't sure if it was worth it.
Edinburgh (2 days) - All I have booked here is tickets to the castle.
Rome (2 days) - Ticket to the colosseum, and easter mass at the Vatican ( I'm not religious at all but my mom got me this ticket haha)
Florence (2 days) - Tickets to Duomo and Ufizi - I waited too long to get tickets to see the statue of David but I figure I could get there early and maybe get in. I'll be here Easter Monday so I'm afraid most places will be closed
For Italy, I'm concerned about getting lunch or dinner as I hear most places need a reservation and I speak very little Italian (27% fluent according to duolingo haha). I will also be there on Easter weekend.
Barcelona (2 days) - I have absolutely nothing planned here and I am overwhelemed - I know I want to see the Sagrada Familia.
Budapest (1.5 days) - I chose Budapest on a whim and I don't even know where to start. I know that I must go to the baths but don't know which one
Sorry if this kind of long or if this type of post isn't allowed. I'm attempting to make some google maps for each city I'm visiting but this is my first big trip and just need some extra tips.
