Yes I love the Dolomites, looking forward to going back this summer.
Understand the intimidation factor of Verdon - but don't let it stop you - its an incredible place and experience. An option to consider, as an entry point to climbing in Verdon if your not comfortable, is to look up Alan Carne - amazing.
Agree with Chris Craggs comments about Norway, I really enjoyed the multi-pitch routes on Haegefjell (250/300m lines on a granite dome) e.g. Mot Sola. Nice wild camping options at the base too. This is in the Nissedal region and I think we had a downloadable topo from Rockfax which was good - quite a few long n5 & n6 grade routes VS/HVS with bolted belay anchors, and ones without features i.e. long smooth slabs had bolts albeit quite adventurously spaced
