Many will say protonmail, I say create a bunch of email accounts from different providers because you do not want to rely on one just to find out it's the same as gmail down the line.
This is definitely the smart approach. You may have an email account through your ISP that you have forgotten about; that would be good for a secondary email. If not, GMX is decent and EU-based. Maybe keep some an Gmail account for junk mail, or open an Outlook.com account for that purpose.

I recommend StartMail.
Precisely! Diversification is the key. Two is one, one is none.
