Final destination for my #AzadiRail trip : after 17 days of travels, a grimy old 
class 628 brought me back to 🇫🇷 #Lauterbourg where I was greeted by #UneBaleineUneBaleine and a cute Régiolis transfrontalier 🇪🇺.
17 days of amazing trains, relaxed travels, beautiful impressions and many kind people.
From 🇫🇷 France to 
#Kurdistan by public transport and back again.
Thanks a lot for reading 🥰 !

Good morning 🇦🇹 #Wien / #Vienna 🤩 !
The night train trip in the 
IRN #Dacia wagon-lits was excellent. We arrived just on time. After a quick shower, I sadly didn't have enough time left for breakfast in the #SleeperAndEater @diningcar - btw. one of the few night trains with different dining cars on different sections of the journey : a CFR bistro carriage between 🇷🇴 #București / #Bucharest and 🇷🇴 #Arad and a 
MÁV @diningcar between 🇭🇺 #Budapest and 🇦🇹 #Wien / #Vienna.
Now time to grab some snacks in Vienna main station before boarding my bringing me to my first destination for today : 🇩🇪 #Nürnberg / #Nuremberg .
#AzadiRail day 17, homebound day 7 has begun. Sadly already the last day of my amazing trip.
OH(ÖBB) : You look like you just arrived by night train.
OH(me) : Indeed, I did. From Bucharest.
OH(ÖBB) : Oh, I hope it was comfortable.
OH(me) : Yes, it was excellent.
OH(ÖBB) : Really, I can't believe people actually enjoy night trains.
