"Ouf, difficult question. I can only speak for Barcelona, Brussels and Amsterdam. Either way, I wouldn't recommend Brussels. I have been there twice now and either I haven't been able to find interesting places or they just don't exist there ;). So, two to three days for Barcelona or Amsterdam. I live in Amsterdam and you would be able to get a grasp of the city within 3 days although you would probably have the feeling to leave the city after such a short time. In Amsterdam you could go to the highlights like Rijksmuseum Amsterdam, Van Gogh Museum, Red Light District, do a boat tour through the canals, and stroll around on the Albert Cuypmarkt. Another, new and interesting place which is a bit unknown amongst tourist it De Hallen (." See More
"Hi, I've studied and lived abroad many times in my life. Common sense, some money and/or a smile will get you ANYWHERE ;-) What I always did was buying a travel guide of the city or country I would live in. This way you get a glimpse of the culture, nature and places to stay, eat or dance. For Amsterdam, the (English) 100%guide is really, really good. It will take you to a lot of nice places.
