After almost a month of traveling, I was starting to get homesick.
It was starting to be more tiring than fun to move location almost every day, so Venice would be the last new place I visited on my journey.
When I left Venice, I found the quickest route towards Norway by train.
I did not take in to any more hotels, instead opting for sleeping on the train the one night that passed during my trip home.
I ended up in Hamburg again, but instead of going via Sweden by train like on my journey down, I figured it would be quicker to take a boat from northern Denmark.
I booked a ticket on a ferry from the port of Frederikshavn, and as soon as I arrived in Oslo, I hopped on a plane back to Bergen.
These two modes of transportation were the only ones I used during the entire trip that were not covered by my InterRail ticket in some capacity, but I was so ready to get home that I didn’t care.
I really enjoyed my journey, getting to see places I had only ever seen in pictures before, but a month with very minimal human interaction was just slightly too long for me.
Some people would have no trouble finding random new friends on the road, but I was too shy to start up conversations with other travelers on the trains.
If I ever were to try anything like this again, I think I would have to bring someone with me.
I hope you have enjoyed my trip down memory lane 🙂
Happy travels!
I was in Norway in 2013. Is it still trie that when you get in a coach with orange door, it means you need to buy a ticket; with a black door you already have one? Or vice versa.
No idea, never been a tourist here.
But that sounds like a good system 🙂
