Zurich to Vienna
31 stycznia 2023, Austria ⋅ 🌬 4 °C

Vienna to Budapest
2 lutego 2023, Węgry ⋅ ⛅ 7 °C
2h40 hop to Budapest. The train was definitely flagging that we are in the European Feb school holiday season. We’ve never been in Hungary before, so this should be interesting.
Budapest
4 lutego 2023, Węgry ⋅ 🌬 2 °C
What a city Budapest is. We don’t have the time to tick off sights on this trip and, anyway, prefer to wander, look and see everyday life. However, we’ve had a look inside the Parliament building, Czytaj więcej
Budapest to Prague

Prague 1
7 lutego 2023, Republika Czeska ⋅ ☀️ -1 °C

Prague 2

Such a beautiful city; more pics from wandering today. Prague Castle area, the Swedish Embassy building donated to Sweden by the owner on gratitude… to part of the National Museum built on the Czytaj więcej
Prague to Krakow
9 lutego 2023, Polska ⋅ 🌙 -6 °C
Every train trip has been different. This morning was lively. Teenagers, babies, people struggling to find tickets. Just before the Polish border, the train splits into two, so worth avoiding a stroll Czytaj więcej
Krakow 1
10 lutego 2023, Polska ⋅ ☁️ 1 °C
Krakow Old Town amazingly beautiful and strikingly relaxed; maybe because it’s February!
Auschwitz-Birkenau
10 lutego 2023, Polska ⋅ ☁️ 1 °C
Not many pictures here. Interesting, moving and vital - glad to have finally been able to come. In a time of war in Europe, Brexit, disinformation and rising intolerance, it feels more important than Czytaj więcej
Krakow 2
11 lutego 2023, Polska ⋅ ☁️ 2 °C
Just a few pictures from Krakow Parkrun which Caroline ran. In the afternoon did loads of riverside and city wandering as well as visiting the Schindler factory museum, which show the history of Czytaj więcej
Krakow to Bialystok via Warsaw
12 lutego 2023, Polska ⋅ ⛅ -1 °C
Left Krakow in the morning; a leisurely change of trains in Warsaw. Impressed with Warsaw’s modern, spacious and impeccably clean station which was more like an airport. Arrived in the city of Czytaj więcej
Bialystok to Vilnius
13 lutego 2023, Litwa
Every train day is different and this one was no exception. A fairly rammed train from Bialystok meandered up through Northern Poland. The full house of train theatre… folk with the wrong ticket, Czytaj więcej
Vilnius
14 lutego 2023, Litwa
A gem of a city. Compared to others we’ve been to on this trip it seemed relaxed, uncrowded. There was a young and positive vibe to this city. A historic centre, immaculately preserved surrounded by Czytaj więcej
Vilnius to Tallin via Riga
15 lutego 2023, Estonia ⋅ ☁️ 0 °C
A temporary hiatus in the rail trip today as we took to the bus as there are no direct rail connections between Vilnius and Tallin. Until they come (via the ambitious Rail Baltica high-speed line Czytaj więcej
Tallin
16 lutego 2023, Estonia
Another amazing city. As is common, Tallin has a compact old town surrounded by the more modern areas and of course a large port complex. Ran 6k first thing along the seafront in light snow and icy Czytaj więcej
Tallin to Helsinki
17 lutego 2023, Finlandia
We left Tallin late in the morning on one of the Viking Lines ferries to Helsinki. The breakfast brunch was mahoosive and ended up seeing us through the whole day. It was a bleak grey day with Czytaj więcej
Helsinki
18 lutego 2023, Finlandia
It snowed overnight so we wondered if Parkrun might be off… But of course not! A hardy crowd of friendly locals and tourists turned up. Ran a steady but so enjoyable run in lovely grippy snow, Czytaj więcej
Helsinki to Kemi
19 lutego 2023, Finlandia
Well the trip up Finland to Kemi was today. Somehow we’d imagined small trains meandering through valleys, Alpine style. In fact it was state of the art intercity trains going at 200km/h packed full Czytaj więcej
Kemi
20 lutego 2023, Finlandia
Kemi feels quite out of season as it largely seems to be a summer resort town; for us, a staging post on the journey towards Sweden. A few older buildings are surrounded by more modern buildings in a Czytaj więcej
