Trip home with #interrail from #Oslo via #Gothenborg #Copenhagen and #hamburg
Originally I had booked a journey through #Sweden plus the ill-fated nighttrain to Hamburg. But some train freaks made me think again and I couldn't afford to miss my connection in Hamburg early Monday morning.
So I left Oslo some hours earlier and took the train to Gothenburg. There was a bit chaos as people didn't know which replacement bus to take. I made a quick decision and it was the right one. So I caught the earlier train to Copenhagen, where time to rest a bit (well, I sat in a station café, drank coffee and ate sweet stuff). Once again the ride in the old train to Hamburg was quite fun as I ended with very interesting people in the compartment.
The night in Hamburg was spent in a hotel near the station and the ride home went quite smooth. After some train chaos in Sweden during the trip, one has to admit that DB isn't that bad after all.
Anyway my melancholic trip to #Tromsø 25 years after my #Erasmus year in the Arctics has come to an end. With the exception of one flight (SJ to blame) the whole trip was done with public transport on the ground. Surely doable, but you need time and should be flexible with your plans.
