A1 Early autumn (September/October) can be a good time to visit Europe if you'd like to avoid high temperatures and the crowds. Plus you'll have more of an authentic experience as more locals are out and about. #travelskills

A2: Lake Bled, Slovenia. Now that the busy tourist season is tapering off, Lake Bled is a wonderfully quiet place to visit — especially during the weekdays. #travelskills
