The trick, I find, is to start small and see what you like doing. My advice would be - go to Rotterdam. Take the Eurostar there, pick literally any hotel. Open up Google maps, find some bars. Pick a couple of museums or parks. Built a rough itinerary for, say, a long weekend. If there's a Pride event on, that's fun. If not, just go wandering. Everyone there speaks decent English. Food and beer is great. Good culture. Adequate weather. If you're gregarious, chat to people in bars, clubs, concerts. If not, look at Greeters - https://internationalgreeter.org/ https://internationalgreeter.org/ They're locals who will show you around the city. Have fun!
