well, itboy - that's quite a wide brief.

to make any sensible suggestions, we would need to know how long you've got after your meetings finish, where you are flying out of at the end of your trip [Paris?] what you like to do, and where else you've already been.

it sounds as if you want to visit somewhere other than France but how much of the rest of France have you seen? And is there any reason why you don't want to spend more time in Paris?

You do not need advice. You need a guidebook to Europe with lots of pictures - e.g. DK Eyewitness - so you can decide where YOU want to go.

Read seat61.com for info on train travel.

Use skyscanner.net plus Ryanair and Easyjet for cheap flights.

Use booking.com for hotels.

If you think you want to go to Rome, fly to Rome.

Wow, this is quite a deep question. I can't help you, maybe consult an accountant or life spiritualist.

Where are you coming from?

I assume English is not your first language, so there may be more questions we have to ask in order to help you.

Can you add extra days to the beginning of your trip, or must they all be after your work days in Paris?
How much total time will you have on the ground in days or nights?
Two nights in a place gives you 1 whole day and part of another.
The more you break up the time and change places, the more time you spend traveling and the less time you have for sightseeing.

Trecking from place to place in Europe takes more time than you may think. You have to allow time getting from your hotel to train station or airport, actual time traveling, and time getting to your next hotel.

Trains are great, but in some cases short, cheap flights might be best. Advice on that comes after you decide on places to visit.

Base your choices on your own interests. What is your image of Europe? Great cities like Rome filled with Art and beautiful architecture? Sidewalk cafes you see in Impressionist paintings? Magnificent mountains like Switzerland? Cliff-side villages, Castles, Medieval towns and villages, Archeological sites like Pompeii? Any places you have always dreamed of seeing? What does your spouse want to see?

Get a map of Europe! Get some guide books! After you say how much time you have and what interests you, people can advise you in how to narrow things down and how to do it.
