Pretty well as cold as possible then. All the places with historical interest are still up before the selection committee but forget Alpine areas, the north of Britain etc. Once you've seen a few major sites/cities I'd be looking more at Spain, Greek islands etc. I'm not even sure how hospitable much of Italy would be, I know from being there about a month into spring it gets pretty cold even there.
Don't listen to this wuss who can't hack the cold. Go to northern Scandinavia and check out the Aurora Borealis.
