When I did my post-secondary Eurotrip I purchased the Euro pass and scheduled my train travels to be overnight such that I could wake up in a new city. Leave Sweden to wake up in Berlin, leave Berlin to wake up in Nürnberg, etc.
Made for a great form of travel IMHO. Got to wake up and watch the sunrise over the countrysides was beautiful. Though I do love your point, I’d love to travel the “Wild West” regions via train.
- sokoloff 5y agoI did the same, but it was mostly to avoid having to buy hotel rooms. :)
- distances 5y agoSleeping compartments are AFAIK about the same price as hotel rooms. I used to sleep on the benches when a bit younger, but stopped that after a couple of sleepless attempts. Nowadays I do night trains solely for the time saving reasons.
- sokoloff 5y agoYeah, this was broke interning 20 year-old me, so 2nd class seating it was, because that was pre-paid with the pass.
