A snow-covered Bergen be one of the most breathtaking places to be in Europe 🫶🏻
~ all locations below

Here’s a guide of how to spend a dreamy weekend in this beautiful Norwegian city 🇳🇴

🚂 start in Oslo by taking the morning train to Bergen
~ board at 08.30 and arrive 15.00 but TRUST me it’s worth it. The views are breathtaking
~ coffee, some lunch dishes, Norwegian waffles & snacks available on the train

✨arrive at one of my favourite hotels in Bergen: - a beautiful old hotel with lots of history located next to the train station

⛰️ stroll the streets of Bergen and make sure to get to one of the many viewpoints
~ don’t miss the medieval area of Bryggen

🍴dine at — a Michelin restaurant, we tried their sushi omakase concept which consists of 12 courses of different sea treasures from the Norwegian waters
~ other food suggestions: “AS Bryggestuen - Bryggeloftet”, “Allmuen” and “Pergola Mat & Vinbar AS”

🍷 grab an evening drink at any of the old bar in town, for instance “Vinbaren - Vin & Pintxos”, “Frille og Dyvekes Vinkjeller” or “No stress”

☕️ cosy cafes: some of my favourites are ”Le Cafe Pomme”, ”Kaffemisjonen”, ”Fjåk chocolate shop & café”

Have a cosy weekend in Bergen! ⛰️🤍

Guys I’m so honoured!! I’ve been chosen to become a EU climate pact ambassador! 🌍 🌱

Don’t know what to say 🥹🤍

MY PURPOSE is to inspire more people to travel more slowly & sustainably by promoting

~ scenic beautiful rides
~ authentic & less crowded places to avoid over tourism
~ connecting with places, exploring cultures, & nature nature

In the mean time I’ll keep on riding my trains - find a collection of travels in 2024 (finally got my ticket to Hogwarts 🪄)

This is a dream come true for me to be honest. I started this account last autumn because I had just quit my corporate job and felt a bit lost in life. Decided to travel by train from Sweden to Florence, Italy to study Italian & live there for a while and wanted to document my travels & show people how amazing train travel is and how much you experience by travelling more slowly.

And what a journey it’s been. Now we’re here, a year later. And I’m featured in Sweden’s largest travel magazine 🤍

For all my Swedish speaking followers - now you’ll find an article about my journey, the background to why I founded Rail Voyage & 8 of my top destinations by train in Europe 🤍✨

Thank you for being here! I love talking to all of you every day!

To many more journeys together 🤍

5 of my top tips for train travel with kids 🚂
.but of course there are many more

Will be honest - I don’t have kids but this is one of my most asked questions and these are some of the things I would do 🤭 feel free to add tips in the comments if you have kids so people can see them 🤍

MORE INFO:

1. Night trains 🌙

~ try night trains but make sure to book your own couchette if you are 3-6 people
~ or a sleeper cabin (2 people) if you travel with kids below 5 as these usually can share the same bed as the parent

Bonus tip: download movies and charge computers/iPads before you get on the train 🎥🍿

2. Disney featured towns 🏰

~ make stops in movies that have featured in Disney movies or that kids movies are based on
~ some examples: Colmar (beauty and the beast), Hallstatt (Frozen), Innsbruck (Frozen), London (Harry Potter), Paris (Ratatouille) etc

3. Interrail pass 🎫

~ if you buy an interrail pass (an all-you-can-ride-ticket for trains in most European countries) you can bring up to 2 kids for free usually, talk about good price!

4. Bring snacks and water 💦

~ always bring snacks and 2-3 water bottles. You cant drink the water on the train and if the train is late you want some snacks

5. Enough time when changing trains

~ always add more time than you think between stops and changes. I always have 1-3 hours between changes
~ usually I leave the luggage at the station in lockers and take time to explore the city, that way you experience a lot!

Pro tip: check that the train station is not too far from the city centre

I still remember going by train when I was a kid and it’s one of those great memories I have 🥹🤍 so bring your kid to the rails, I’m sure they will love it 🚂
