BRATISLAVA – SLOVAKIA
After a few days in Vienna, it was time to get back on the rails, and head to my next destination. The next stop was to be Chisinau, the capital of Moldova, but to get there was going to take 2 days and 2 nights of train travel – so I decided to stop off…

VIENNA – AUSTRIA
Despite being 3.5 hours late, my NightJet from Hamburg finally pulled into Vienna Hauptbahnhof, and I emerged a little weary, but excited for the next stop. The last time I was in Vienna was in 2012, and so I figured this would be an opportunity to see if the city had changed much at all.…

FREDERICIA – DENMARK
25/1/26 A short post here, for a little town I had a short break in! My route was taking my from Gothenburg all the way down to Vienna in one hit – the journey, however, was to be broken up into a number of different train trips: Gothenburg to Copenhagen; Copenhagen to Fredericia; Fredericia to…

GOTHENBURG – SWEDEN
23/1/26 – 25/1/26 I left Oslo at 10:15am, on a VR train bound for Gothenburg. As Sweden’s second city, and its major university centre, I was excited to see what kind of atmosphere it would have. The train ride took under 3 hours – the trains up in this part of the world are undeterred…

OSLO – NORWAY
21/1/26 – 23/1/26 It took a rather long time for me to reach Oslo, the capital of Norway – but after a short morning out in Manchester pre-flight, I was good to go. My SAS flight landed at Gardermoen Airport at a touch before 4pm – which, with January’s sunrise and sunset times, meant that…

TIRANA – ALBANIA
18/12/24 – 20/12/24 By the time we landed in Tirana, after our long travel day, it was already close to midnight! Luckily, we were off the plane quickly, and Albania’s e-Gate system made for fast passage through passport control – our next step was to find the Luna bus, which operates between the airport and…

SARAJEVO – BOSNIA & HERZEGOVINA
14/12/24 – 18/12/24 The flight from Belgrade to Sarajevo was short and painless (unlike the chaos of the return journey, which I’ll get to later!). Sarajevo Airport isn’t too far away from the city, and there are apparently two bus routes – one which is a private bus from the airport to the city, and…
