Yeah, what was I really thinking about?? I don’t even like travelling, just the change of environment. And I choose Eurrailing of all ways of travelling. It felt like the perfect start of a travelling blog. Ad hoc and a bit adventurous. What would it be like 32 years after my first train hopping travelling? More sustainable as the cream on top.
But the day before departure I just walk around with a grey cloud in my chest. My office colleagues get the delicate task of boosting me with exciting places the’ve travelled to. All the way down to the Greek Islands with its crystal clear water and delicious food. My cloud eases, mostly cause I get a shower of their friendly care. It’ll work.
And here I am, at the platform waiting to board my sleeping cabin on the night train to Berlin. Where I’ll be greeted by my in many ways extraordinary ex-husband David. A soft start of my month of travelling by train in Europe.
