10. Fly from Miami to Dublin, Ireland, for as low as $874 round trip

They may move to very different rhythms, but both Miami and Dublin have all the open-hearted warmth and liveliness that keep travelers coming back time and time again. You'll have to be willing to wave goodbye to sun-kissed beaches though, as Ireland's not renowned for its sunny weather. Instead, dive into Dublin's 1000-year history, from its founding as a Viking settlement to its courageous battles for independence from the English. Some pubs will help you with this, such as the Brazen Head, which claims to be Ireland's oldest pub — dating back to 1198 — with live music every night. Air France run the cheapest flights, which involve a connection but are still frequently the fastest option.

Berlin is another chilly northern European city that has heaps of style and history to make up for the frequently inclement weather. Indeed the city has everything covered. History buffs could while away years in the enormous range of museums, shivering at the horrors of the Gestapo at the Topography of Terror then stepping back into the GDR at the Checkpoint Charlie Museum. Meanwhile, party animals can arise late and dive into one of Europe's biggest and most progressive club scenes, with the best concentrated in the east of the city, an evolution of the squatter scene that flourished following the fall of the Berlin Wall. All flights from Miami involve connections and the cheapest are operated by Aeroflot Airlines.

"I tell you there's nothing like Munich. Everything else in Germany is a waste of time." So said Ernest Hemingway, in a typical flash of bombastic hyperbole.

Was it the stupendous baroque, Italianesque and Gothic Revival architecture, the latter encapsulated in the world-famous Neues Rathaus city hall?

Or was it just the fantastic beer that flows freely throughout the year, swelling to a climax during the lager-soaked Oktoberfest?
