Europe At My Feet

20 years ago I went on my first InterRail trip, ambitiously planning to cover vast parts of the European map. True, I only ended up covering France and the UK, but it was still a great and eventful journey.

Ten years before this I went on another, just as momentous travel: My family's car ride through the BeNeLux countries and Germany, including the beautiful Mosel valley. This too was definitely a memorable experience.

Now it's 2010, and once again it's summer and time for travelling. After last year's Tibetan extravaganza I had decided to take it more easy thie year. Maybe just a few days in a European city or something. But Europe has so many interesting cities. I was considering Berlin, London, Amsterdam and many others. But then I realized that there's actually a reasonable way to visit two, three and many even more European cities within a few weeks. Namely InterRail!

So, now I'm considering just jumping on the first train available and go wherever the European railway network might lead me. I hope to revisit several nice places from both my InterRail 1990 and my family's car ride 1980. And if any of you should happen to be somewhere on the continent this summer, just give me a call. Maybe I could drop by for tea or something? ;-)
