Where is hot in January?
We all know that the weather in January in Europe is somewhat lacking if you're craving winter sun. Not only is it one of the coldest months of the year, but the days are short and sunshine hours are near their lowest.
Even in the Mediterranean, where it's warmer and generally sunnier than anywhere further north, it can also be wet and windy.
