"Lugging a backpack between 15 different train stations lost its thrill after I graduated college. Oceania’s 12-day European cruise hit all the essential cities—Rome, Barcelona, Lisbon, and London—plus smaller towns like La Coruña, in northern Spain, and Le Verdon, in the Gironde. Watching the changing shoreline from my balcony was way more charming than speeding past farms on the TGV."
