I must say that in visiting Vilnius I never get bored. In the Lithuanian capital another woman was waiting for me, again met through couchsurfing. With this one, however, we had written a lot and even talked on the phone. I had an idea that there was already a connection, but not that she would…

The Tallinn-Helsinki ferry takes three hours to arrive in the Finnish capital. There are many of them and they are very comfortable, and there are also pleasant performances with folk music there.

My trip to the Baltic countries lasted 11 days in August 2017 and I returned for a weekend in May 2023. This was the itinerary on my google maps. By Baltic countries I mean Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania, but also Finland. It was theoretically solo but in fact it was always in company because I…

I have arrived in the eastern cities of Canada. In particular in the last few days I have been in Toronto, in the capital Ottawa, and now I am on my way to Quebec city. This is the sixth video from Canada, always almost live. I am on an 18-day trip, solo and using public…

Here is the Niagara Falls video, much requested by someone. It is the fifth, almost live, from my trip to Canada. It is done from the top which is the (free) best location. I also took the ferry ride, a fun experience, but you can see very little. I am on an 18-day trip, solo…

When I had planned the trip, I certainly had not thought about the fires in Canada. I knew there had been, even in the area where I would be, but I had not imagined that I would see the effects. This is the third video from Canada, still in one of the Rocky Mountain wilderness…

I am in the Canadian Rockies, specifically in Banff National Park. In this article is the second almost live video from the trip to Canada. First, however, I must say that the ending of Vancouver was very sad. I unexpectedly ran into what are called zombies, the new fentalyn junkies. Some streets, downtown, are full…

In this article is the first almost live video from the trip to Canada, which I started from Vancouver. I am 8700 km from my home, never been this far west. I started an 18-day journey, solo and using public transportation, that is, the kind I prefer. On my maps that’s where they are. Nearly…

Of the many silly things I had already done in life, I missed the one of missing the plane. It was a ‘thrill I gave myself at the end of a trip that had been uneventful and for which I risked trouble getting home. Shiraz is not just a wine Shiraz was the last destination…
