The last user forgot to mention Poland. Its still much cheaper than western Europe. Although parts of Czech republic and slovakia can be cheaper than Poland.

All these comments about how rich we americans are are not very sensitive to those americans who do need to travel on a budget (like 30 euros a day including bed..)

You can still do that in some places, but your dollars will go farther the further east you go. (outside moscow)

And this business about portfolios and appreciation of Euros...maybe the value hasnt changed much in the last year but if you go back 5-6 years to the debut of the Euro,which might have been the last time some people visited if they cant afford to go every year to Paris.. The Euro was 80 cents to the dollar in the winter of 2001, today it (is at least.1.27 dollars equals a euro..)

The pound is also double the dollar, whereas it used to be considerable lower also.

Skandinavia in the same period has gotten at least 30-40 more expensive.

2001: 10 swedish krona was 1 dollar..today its 6.57
8 danish kroner was 1, today 5.3


so it has gotten a lot more expensive for some people in arelatively short amount of time.

But I'm not complaining cause I live in the EU, still its expensive to travel from the east to the west

Since you are asking this question in "Continental Europe" I assume you want a European country. Well, the places where dollar is king in Europe are Russia and the Ukraine. Also the countries in Eastern Europe that were formerly behind the iron curtain are generally cheaper to travel in than Western Europe, but not much. Good places to visit would be the Czech Republic, Slovakia, Slovenia, Romania, Bulgaria or Hungary. Prague and the Czech Republic are especially nice for a first time visit to Eastern Europe.

The dollar has fallen about 5% against the Euro in the last year.

Not exactly a big deal.

And has been noted, Americans still have higher incomes than almost any other people on the planet. More importantly, because they are not sucked dry by taxes they have even higher disposable incomes.

The notion that a "weak" dollar is some sort of disaster is largely a political one.

I went to Paris last year and I'm going again this year. It will cost me 5% more than it did last year. Then again, since last year I've had a 21% return on my stock portfolio so I'm not changing my destination to Lower Slobovia.

Ouch! the rustic is now exporting greater nutrition and organic materials (agricultural produce, dairy, meats, coal, and base metals) than synthetic products, because of the fact the cost of exertions is so severe right here through exertions unions, the businesses that produce right here won't be ready to compete with foreign places businesses that produce at a fragment of the cost. cost of residing, nutrition, and skill will proceed to climb at an exponential value because of the fact the dollar takes a swan dive (this is already beginning up). the U. S. is counting on purchasers to prop up the economic device, and this is considerable marketplace is the provider sector, which incorporate lodges, tourism, cruise strains, etc. merely like the Roman empire in that's time of decline. the suitable way for the conventional guy to outlive is to commence spending much less on doodads and commence determining to purchase gold and silver. Gold is over $800, and silver is over $15, so this is greater inexpensive to purchase silver. The annoying materials which incorporate gold and silver will celebrate with in cost whilst the dollar falls. Edit: Jose R is right- we do export multiple weapons. the militia commercial complicated is the main marvelous production middle. We export bombs, weapons, tanks, and warring parties.. and we additionally export debt (via advertising US government. bonds).

Weak when compared to which currencies? The Euro?

Well, Euro is more expensive that $, but European people earn much, much less ot it than American do with $.

That's why you can find tourists only in European luxury boutiques!
