If your phone is not GSM it won’t work. You could buy a cheap prepaid phone over there for about €50→€100 or so (I’m guessing here) and use that. Might be cheaper/easier than sorting out a phone in the USA.
Not that phone. Virgin, in the USA, uses Sprint’s network. Sprint uses the CDMA standard. Europe uses a different standard, GSM.
The only US phones which can work in Europe are:
The phone should also be carrier-unlocked. Then you can buy foreign carrier SIM cards and pop them in your phone. It’s cheap to use. However, unlocked phones are generally a few hundred dollars more than locked ones. If you buy a phone without a contract, it’s probably unlocked.
A locked phone would still use the American phone plan. It’s expensive to use abroad. But locked phones are cheaper to buy. If you buy a phone with a contract (i.e. for two years), it’s probably locked.
