Good point about Europe and perhaps there isn’t a huge different in train travel in western Europe (just assumed it, I haven’t experienced train travel outside of England and one Eurostar trip to Paris) compared to the diversity found further afield.

I am interested in train, however. Perhaps the author felt Europe’s gotten enough exposure?

I’m sure a lot of readers would enjoy the food descriptions but it wasn’t for me 😀 Thank you Jee.

Great review, NS!

I admire those who write about their travels in an interesting way! There are plenty of boring accounts out there.

The author coming across as judgemental and smug doesn’t appeal though.

Wow, that is quite a feat, given how tiny those sinks are! I do admire people who are enthusiastic travellers.
