Every year, I try to visit at least one of the #EuropeanCapitalofCulture s. This year that is #Oulu in Finland and #Trenčin in Slovakia. I hope to manage both this year!
(Haven’t figured it all out quite yet but do ask Fedi or me for hints in case you want to visit, too.)

Dear Finland #nighttrain experts: traveling on the Aurora Borealis Express from #Oulu direction Helsinki, should I book normal “new” double deck cabin because comfy or old “blue cars” because rare, nostalgic, wider beds …? (In August, but I don’t think the missing air conditioning will be an issue or will it?)

This Slovak city just became a new European Capital of Culture.

Expect music festivals, art exhibitions and more in Trenčín throughout 2026.

The city, which is located around an hour and 15 minutes away from the capital Bratislava, has planned events around the theme of curiosity, hoping to “inspire bridge-building between people, between past and future, and between imagination and reality”.

Throwback to 2016: The working model for “The Island - Ebeltoft”. Scale 1:50. 🏝️

This floating stage was developed as a proposal for Aarhus 2017 - European Capital of Culture, designed to host music, art, performances, and community in the harbor.

While the full vision materialized in a smaller form, the iconic structure itself became a beloved landmark in Ebeltoft for years.

Last year, the chapter closed as the physical island was removed. This model remains a snapshot of that ambitious, joyful concept. 📸
