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…

We arrived in the afternoon, after a two-legged journey from Kyoto – the Thunderbird Express taking us to…

KYOTO – JAPAN
3/10/25 – 5/10/25 Following our day out in Hiroshima, we took a shinkansen up towards Japan’s cultural capital, Kyoto – whipping past little towns and Japanese countryside at 300kph is a real experience! We checked into our accommodation for the night (a huge apartment!), before heading out to get our first taste of Kyoto. The…

HIROSHIMA – JAPAN
2/10/25 – 3/10/25 Following a lovely few days in Matsuyama, it was time to head back over the water to Honshu island, this time to visit the city of Hiroshima. We took a local train (and short bus ride) down to the port, and collected our ferry tickets. The trip across the Seto inland sea…
