Tasks
I am not sure how many tasks are you planning to make, so this is what I would suggest. I divided countries into groups the way how danube flows through them. When there are more countries in the group, contestants could choose which one they want to make.
(If more tasks are needed, groups of more countries can be split. I made groups according to whether is Danube an border of them or not)
Also I had an idea to give one bonus inspiration - very abstract, word assosiated with each country. Only a few girls may take it as their inspiration and incorporate it into the outfit, but it would be a challenge for those who want to test their creativity. However I am not sure about it. :D

Hi Elysse,
I am writing you regarding the ideas about the „Danube Cruise“ I had sofar.
At first, I would briefly sum up the inspiration idea connected to countries. I will explain them in more words later :) (Bonus ideas, are very abstact, but i thounght it could be cool to maybe offer them as bonus tasks or way to gain some bonus points)
INSPIRATIONS
Germany – Tracht!, Schwarzwald, Christmas ornaments (bonus idea „beginning“ – if it would be beginning of competiton)
Austria – Alps, Angewandte show, Habsburg era (Schonbrunn Palace Garden, Sissi - Empress Elisabeth of Austria) with austria I would suggest a beauty task for sure, maybe with theme „round glasses“ :D They are very creative when it comes to hair, there are so many hair related events and many people even in streets have fancy colourful haistyles, or are not afraid to cut their hair short.
(bonus idea „freedom of mind“ or „bio“)
Slovakia – Celts, Folk achitecture- cicmany (check editorial „It takes a village“ from Vogue-Japan March 2017 by photographer Michal Pudelka ), Slavic origin /Folk (check designer Petra Toth), Hockey, connection to nature
(bonus idea „spring“ – as water spring)
Hungary – Balaton, Red (spicy) pepper! (I know it sound funny, but this is truly their most characteristic thing and it could look very good as an outfit,
(bonus idea Hungary - „goulash“ – another one from cuisine, but goulash also reffers to „mix“, or „mix of everything good“ )
Croatia - Plitvice lakes, Dubrovnik, War, Nature – Stones, pines ans sea. The most it´s landcape is full of stones and pines or knee timber, adorned with delicate flowers. It has wild raw charm and beauty. Try google „old croatia house“
(bonus idea „sanguine“)
Serbia – I would just guess, it seems to me that it is similar to countries around it. I know they have a lot of sheeps tho! :D
Romania - Dracula, Salina Turda, The Moss Swamp, Carpathia mountains
Bulgaria – Nightlife & beaches
Moldova – I have never been there and I heard almost nothing of it, so again, this would be just a guess.
