Arriving off a TGV in Hendaye, I transferred to the @euskotren for Donostia. What a lovely chance to dip my toes in the Atlantic! This was in September - if I have anything to say about it, it won't be my last time going #FlightFree to Euskadi :D

ANNUAL CO2 ROUNDUP - 2025

How well did I do this year in terms of avoiding flights? Overall, I did a lot of flying, but also a LOT of flight free travelling. Again, over half my total for the year came from one return flight to the US...

After going to San Sebastian and Bilbao earlier this year flight-free, my journey continued through the countryside of Euskadi, to Zaragoza with ALSA, and on to high speed AVE trains, ending up in Girona. A flight home, but a great journey with a whole lot fewer emissions!

Taking the train in Sweden 🇸🇪🚅

From commuter rail in Skåne to SJ night trains and their daytime expresses, there's a long way you can go by train in Sweden

All electric, some trains a little smaller or slower than others but overall a very comfortable experience -

This might be Train X Europe, but why not show a little of the US from my last trip? The Northeast Corridor has the best travel experiences in the country for visitors, not least the gargantuan NYC subway

#NoFilterNeeded - because this is Switzerland 🇨🇭

📍 Murgs, to be exact
Also Liechtenstein 🇱🇮

Unique wines and beers, amazing lakes, and even Zurich has a bit of an old town to look at (despite it's reputation as a bit of a soulless financial centre)

@seatsixtyone.bsky.social A wee update for you - Girona train/bus station does *not* have luggage lockers.

Plenty of people online saying they exist, but can confirm today that if they ever did, there are none extant now!

Venlo - An Underrated Stop on Summer Euro-Trips 🇳🇱👍

What underrated stops have you found on your trips this summer?

Might not be as famous as the big cities, but Venlo is a great example of what flight free travel can do to make a trip more unique, interesting, and sustainable!

Cable Car Ride to Oberbozen / Soprabolzano 🚠🇮🇹

📍Rittner Seilbahn

There's a whole town above Bolzano, up in the Alpine clouds - you can take a cable car there, not far from Bolzano train station. once you arrive, a mountain railway takes you around the high plateau...

Little Destinations: Kempen 🇩🇪

You might not plan a whole flight free trip across Europe with little towns like Kempen in mind, but they make a great stop on any travel day!

Unassuming, Kempen still has a nice historic center with a castle and raised windmill, nice parks and cafes

FROM AMSTERDAM TO THE MEDITERRANEAN IN 12 PICTURES 🇳🇱🇮🇹🌃🚞

Taking an OEBB Nightjet to Innsbruck, we had time to look around this beautiful Alpine town before boarding a next gen Railjet, heading all the way to Ancona! 🏖️

Tiny travel destinations
📍Schlitz, Germany

Find a little gem like this when you go just one step off the main routes! Fulda is a crossroads for high speed intercity rail service, yet a little bus out of Fulda takes you to a charming, old fashioned German town 🏰🇩🇪

FTM narrow gauge train
Mezzocorona to Val di Non 🚞🇮🇹

In Trentino, a narrow gauge train connects the main station at Trento up the Adige to Val di Non, home of famous apples and many castles 🍎 🏰

It's not an old steam railway! this narrow gauge is fully electrified, part of Italy's transit network👍

Overlooked Destinations - Venlo 🇳🇱

How do we get away from the big over-touristy cities like Amsterdam, while also finding accessible and interesting alternatives? 🤔

We find medium sized towns/cities instead!

Camping is a cheap way to see beautiful places - even in Switzerland! 🇨🇭🚊

Who knew this old Danish town had so many points of interest?
- Brewpub Oelluminati
- Cathedral
- Old architecture
- and of course, great smørrebrod!

Free to See in Copenhagen 🇩🇰

The Changing of the Guard at Amalienborg Castle is free, right in the city centre, and hearkens back to the 19th century. Easy to fit into a walking tour of the city!
