First solo travel coming up! What are some things I should absolutely see and do while at these locations? Advice and tips appreciated!
So I'll be going solo for the first time from May 11 to June 2 this year, inspired by my roommate who has solo travelled several times recently, and by my grandma, who is crazy about traveling in general.
Has anyone done/heard of great activities or things to see in these places that I shouldn't miss out on if I can help it? I want to get the most out of this trip.
Locations and estimated dates (the dates from one place to another aren't set in stone yet):
Scotland - May 12 to 17
Edinburgh, Jacobite Steam Train, Isle of Skye, Glasgow.
London - May 18 to 19
Ride the London Eye, explore for a day on the way to Amsterdam (have been here once as a kid, want to focus on new places)
Amsterdam - May 20 to 22
Denmark - May 23 to 29
Aalborg to stay with family there, going to Aalborg Karnival on 5/26; Copenhagen for a couple days.
Oslo, Norway - May 30 to June 2
Ferry from Copenhagen to here? Explore city and some nature before heading home.
Bonus question: should I get a reasonably priced new camera? I have my smartphone (Samsung S6 Edge), although it's about 3 yrs old and doesn't take night photos too well. It's great otherwise.
Extra info relevant to travel activity suggestions: I'm from Sacramento, CA. I enjoy exploring cities and culture, easy/moderate nature hikes, new experiences, and meeting locals and other travellers. I plan to mostly stay in hostels and maybe some air bnbs. My budget including airfare is about $4000, preferably less (luckily Norwegian airlines has great deals from Oakland to Oslo).
