No fucking way Ib. As one who has travelled extensively in Europe and is happy to "do" a city in a couple of hourse, it won't work. You'd be lucky to manage a third of that in a month.

better, but what's the mileage and what's your longest road trip so far? Why not go by train?

OK. tell me the attraction in each city. There's a lot of France in there. And you really can miss Belgium. And probably Switzerland......

Don't miss Paris unless you've already been there, do take in Carcassonne. Northwest of France. mmmmmm not really necessary.

We're going to have words

I would suggest the Mont Saint Michel, Bayeux and its tapestry, Rouen and its cathedral, D-Day sites such as Omaha Beach, Normandy cider and camembert. Of course, you can forget Le Havre (entirely destroyed during WWII). Pushing west in Brittany, there's the coast of "Granit Rose" on the north and the prehistoric site of Carnac and the Morbihan Gulf in the south. And, in the westernmost part, there's ME !!!
