@Stoori Tämän halua lukea! Niin monella ihmisellä on tapana narista hengähdystauolla niin, ettei ihan tiedä että tuleeko sitä puhetta vielä vaiko ei ja siihen on tosi hankala iskeä kohteliaasti väliin.

Hamburg was nice, a couple of museums and some working. I stayed at Villa Viva and was again really happy with the price quality ratio. My trip to Lille was very badly calibrated: every train was late, except for the last one, which meant that I was exactly 59 minutes late, not an hour, which makes seeking for compensation moot. Which, by the way, is super easy via the interrail page, I&#39;ll never do the DB compensation shit again. #interrail

Except for a food poisoning, the rest of my #interrail was a comfortable success. Castle and cousin in Bensheim, dog sitting and a dear friend in Berlin, and the efficient train day &amp; night to Stockholm, where I lived on the edge breakfast-wise: arriving at 6AM I dashed to the SJ firstclass breakfast hotel, had a relatively peaceful brekkie, took the 6:55 bus 53 and made it to harbour just in time to catch the 7:45 ferry to Turku. Where I&#39;m about to arrive soon. And then it&#...

@partim How disappointing, I was under the impression that Danish trains are reliable, even if the routes are, well, a tad jointed.

DB delivers. Train from Kolding to Hamburg late/cancelled, leg from Hamburg to Berlin uncertain. Colour me surprised. Let’s see if I’ll get to Berlin today. #interrail #traintravel #deutscheBahn

@MikeFromLFE Oh yes, people at Villa Viva were nice indeed! The common area seemed comfy as well, next time I'll check out the breakfast. Maybe the fact that the place has a variety of room types, most of them "proper" rooms, makes it so non-sketchy 😄

Berlin was nice, as it usually is, except for crappy art. A sound art work that sounded like collection of nature effects, and a light art piece that looked like an all-flickering light equipment presentation. Luckily, there was a bar in the latter and I rushed for alcohol. The bartender gave me a freebie vodka and took one himself, too. No wonder, he has to watch it day in day out. But I also got to see Jeremy Shaw&#39;s Phase Shifting Index for the third time, which made it all good again...

Regensburg and Re.Light festival were both very, very nice. I met old and new colleagues and my only complaint is that the bars are too small and noisy, so I didn&#39;t quite meet them as much as I&#39;d hope, since I beared the noise and crowding for three minutes on average. I also got to meet Margareta Hesse, whom I admire, and saw her No barrier for a fourth time. #Regensburg #Interrail #LightArt

Today&#39;s trip to Hamburg had many legs since I did a detour to visit Museum Ritter of Ritter Sport fame, combining my two favourite things, light art and chocolate. The exhibition was awesome, but trip there not so much: every single train was late and one local bus on a detour without any notice, causing an unbudgeted taxi trip. Also, no time for chocolate. #MuseumRitter #Interrail #traintravel #LightArt

Well, here&#39;s a great #overnighthotel in Hamburg! Ten or so minutes walk from hbf, ~20 € night in a Camping ground box. It really is a small one, but kind of a private room anyway. With a tiniest window. They seem to sell pretty quickly though. #Interrail https://www.villaviva-hamburg.de/en

I wonder if I&#39;m also cursed by the Demon of pixelfed-hashtag-following? Whenever I try to follow one, the circle on the follow-button just keeps whirling in the feel-free-to-wait-until-you-die patience and style.
