Hi guys! We’re on a train again! It’s already our 3rd travelday, only 7 left! We’re continuing to Rome for 3 nights, and then either Firenze or Milan. We’ve got window seats and a table, I’ve eaten a sandwich and drunk a youghurt for breakfast, so pretty much everything is fine. We met some nice […]

This could really be the good life
Emil brought flip-flops, I didn’t. Chilling in Venice part 3. Emil took his flip-flops to town and I had my racks, so we just found ourselves a nice little gondola-jetty by the Grande Canal and spent a few hours talking, listening to music, staring at people, eating salty biscuits and going through pictures. The evening […]
Tonight we’re building bridges
Yesterday we just chilled, relaxed, had some pasta and some wine, lit candles and played cards. Totally felt like a beach vacation. Today we packed our things and walked to the bus, payed more than we had thought but got in to the city pretty fast. We had to BUY a map (they have none […]
If I fall, at least I can say I gave it all
Hi guys! We’re on a train again. We were supposed to spend the evening in Wien and take the night train to Venice, but the train was full. There was a compulsory reservation, and we tried to reserve it for 3 days, but the webpage didn’t work. When we go to the train station, the […]
Hold courage to your chest
So we’ve arrived in Venice. Didn’t see a lot of it though, since we found to bus to the camping area PLUS Camping Jolly in Marghera, where we’re staying, and then we had to find the right way to it, which sounded like it would take a while. Luckily, there was another really nice backpacker […]
And the trains rolled on through the small towns and never looked back
So far we’ve had some trouble with the compromises. No problem deciding which train to take or what cities to go to, but damn if we have to choose what we should eat or who should carry the water. Right now we’re fighting about whether we should put the sandwiches away before the next stop […]
Looking back in the rearview mirror
Day 2/26, sightseeing in Prague. Beginners as we are, we did not have the really cheap (3 €) buffet breakfast at our hostel this morning, but we walked to the river to eat there. We passed like 20 coffee shops and stores on our way, determined to eat by the river. This wasn’t too […]
They call us crazy youngsters
Packing. The backpackers! Yeah we knew we had to leave this town. Emil likes his backpack. And I like this city. And the subways are clean and modern. What is it with old cities, busy streets and night light? Yes Mom(s), we are brushing our teeth. And these are the showers. And this is where […]
Just tryna make it back home by Monday
It might be worth it, everything. That’s what I thought while driving to the bus station this morning after waking up my family. Even Elina was staying over, and since I’m the only one working, I left while they were still sleeping. The beautiful thing is that each and every one of the whispered a […]
Turn around
So on Friday, when I went to Brussels, another little thing took my place at home. My sister got a kitten, and we’ve named her Mignon. She’s the cutest little thing, and I’m obsessed with taking pictures of her. Since we’ve never had animals, I’m very unaccustomed with the situation of something running around […]
