I feel like I’ve been homeless for a few days now. A very privilegied homeless with a friend, a phone, a fancy camera, food, money and a train ticket, but still homeless. It’s weird how you’re so used to having a safe bed to go to every night, a place where your things are and […]

Begging for adventure
Yesterday when the first train left Paris Nord for St. Quentin, Emil and I told each other that this has been a great but almost boring trip, nothing bad has happened and everything has gone smooth. Stupid, stupid, stupid us for saying that. We switched trains in St. Quentin to Douai, where we couldn’t find […]
And you love the game
Paris. We love you. I have so many pictures left, wait a second!! We’ve had the most amazing days here. I recommend the hotel, Hotel Bertha, in Mont Martre where we lived. It’s in the middle of a nice quarter, alive but not strange and scary, just a short walk from Pigalle, Sacre Coeur and […]
Just staring at the stars
Guten Tag! Or something. We’re in the train from Lugano to Zurich, finally. We wanted to save some money and skip reserving seats, and we’ve travelled with regional trains all day. Milan-Chiasso, Chiasso-Lugano, Lugano-Zurich. We arrived in Milan yesterday, where we had booked 1 star-hotel instead of a hostel (it wasn’t much more expensive, everything […]
You got me singing in the shower
Good morning! It’s 11.37 and we have totally slept like babies. We just had some youghurt and today we’re going to do some sightseeing, including the Vatican City. I’m mad about having to wear long pants, you’ll get my opinion on that later. Yesterday we made pasta with pesto, mozzarella and fresh tomatoes in the […]
I remember the day
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 […]
