    I have been doing a lot of vacationing “at home” this year and it’s been a blast. Helps that it’s been the warmest summer in recorded history (as long as I don’t think about it too hard).

    Going abroad and discover other cultures and climates is great and all, but it’s so easy to miss how great it can be close to home or just a few hours by train.



  • This would be perfect for Norway. Oslo-Trondheim and Oslo-Bergen is consistently among the most trafficked air routes in Europe and the train ride is 7-8 hours. I love trains and use them whenever I can and even though I believe we should get better train infrastructure between the largest cities I also concede the fact that beyond those it’s just not practical with trains all the way up north or out to the small coast communities.

    Electric planes with a few hundred kilometers reach would suite our domestic travel juuust fine. I might even have started my European interrail trip with a short flight to Oslo or Copenhagen if electric planes where doable and reasonable (in terms of both cost and emissions).
