Look at Ljubljana too.
If by "winter stuff" you also mean some kind of sport, Slovenia definitely a great country to visit.

It's been a few years since I visited, but I really liked the place. Small and comfy, good food and wine.

Thanks, I actually did take a Lonely Planet book about Slovenia out of the library yesterday and the Julian Alps also seem like a great place to visit.

We might like to try skiing, but we are also interested in stuff like Christmas Markets, ice skating, and maybe a classical concert with Christmas music, if that makes sense.

I'm not into any of that myself, but by God, that sounds like a /comfy/ vacation. I can't offer much advice because I've never been to Europe in winter, but have fun, OP!

I love Christmas markets. Wasn't in Slovenia during Christmas and have only really experienced them in Lübeck and different places in Belgium, but they were super comfy.
Sadly we don't really do them in Denmark.

everything is way cheaper in winter. except kopaonik in serbia, faggots.
coming from greece:
>Croatia -> expensive coast, but beautiful. If you are musilm, black, jewish, serbian, russian, greek speak english and don't mention it, trust me... dubrovnik is a must! neo nazis are a big problem, if you are white and catholic, very safe
>Serbia -> the cheapest one (FYROM is cheaper, but nothing to see), nice mountains and rivers. lots of cheap skiing. cities are dirty. best (and cheap) nightlife. no museums of note. pretty safe (if you are not muslim)
>Jordan -> expensive to get there, medium to cheap everything else. stunning architecture (+ wadi rum, jerash, the dead sea...).nice people. winter is good bcs of temperatures. safety- i would wait a few years for the middle east to settle down a bit.. went there a long time ago..
>Greek Islands -very cheap (samothraki) cheap (thasos),medium (crete) , very expensive (santorini). you can even steal a swim on crete in winter, also out of season. samothraki is a gem during the season, greeks go there (no tourists!). skip the island close to turkey (lesbos, rodos..) because of the illegal immigrants. other ones are very safe

Thanks for your post. I looked into ticket prices to a bunch of places, and now we are heavily interested in going to Greece with maybe two days in Athens, one in Delphi, and a few days on an island or two.

Tbh visiting cities isn't that nice in the winter time in Europe. If skiing and winter sports interest you at all, there are tons of options.

Bulgatria. Cheap to fly in/out. Cheap if you aren't in the top tier places and plenty of activities for couples. Great beaches.

Have you considered Morocco? The holidays are a great time to visit; the climate is cool, the tourists are scarce and the almond trees are just starting to blossom.
If you're considering both Jordan and places with Christmas markets, it sounds like anywhere is fair game.

If you are in Athens, before going to Delphi, I would suggest Sounion and old Corinth... That's an extra day or two. If you are going to multiple islands, I would suggest Thasos- Samothraki or Santorini-Crete!

second that. the sea is not nice, but that is not a problem in winter..
