This winter I travelled from London to Sweden by train passing through and exploring Amsterdam, Copenhagen, Malmo and Stockholm.
In this video I show what the journey home is like on the way home as I take the new Stockholm to Hamburg sleeper train.
In my last video I showed what this journey to Sweden is like and what you can do along the way including visiting the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam, the Design museum in Copenhagen, naked bathing in Malmo and going to see the Vasa ship in Stockholm.
A few years ago I quit flying for holidays and since then whenever I go away I travel by land or sea, mainly by train or ferry.
If you enjoy this video please subscribe as it really helps me make more of these videos.
If you’re interested in learning more about slow or sustainable travel and seeing what other flight-free holidays look like I will be uploading more videos in the future which explore both.

Thanks for the videos Sarah, keep them coming
Happy New Year !!!
Really enjoyed the journey to Stockholm and back. This and the last video were an absolute treat to watch, especially all the "off-train" experiences you shared in the last video.
Kinda funny how reaching earlier is "not always good" LOL.
Unrelated to the video, as someone who does not live in Europe, I am looking forward to my very first long duration Nightjet Sleeper Cabin experience in a couple of months. YAY 🤩
Çok güzel video ama kısa.. Biraz daha uzun videolar bekliyoruz. Tren seyahatlerinin keyfini alabilmek için biraz daha uzun videolar yayınlarsan daha iyi olur 🙂😊 Bu arada, giydiğin hırka harika, rengi de modeli de nefis. Belki o hırkayı sen örmüşsündür değil mi, ne de olsa örgü örmeyi iyi biliyorsun😊🤩👌👍 Paylaşım için teşekkürler, yeni videolarını bekliyoruz. İyi seyahatler🗺🚞🚝🚆
I might do this now at night cause I was planning to trip during the day 😊
I hadn't thought about how the translation allows people to distort 'flygskam'. In Swedish, 'skam' is obviously the noun, not the verb.
Hi Sarah, thank you very much for creating these inspiring travel vlogs. Like you, I love the adventure of travelling by train and wholeheartedly agree that there’s a charm and romance about rail travel that simply cannot be had with flying. I feel your channel is an invaluable resource for everyone including the environmentally conscious, and I’m planning to treat myself to one of the epic rail journeys you’ve shared imminently! Happy New Year!
Hi Sarah and happy new year. You have the gift of language and I always enjoy your videos and the clear information you provide.
Looking forward to the next one already x
I'm from Vancouver B.C. thanks 😊
One of the reasons I was personally looking forward to the sleepers was that the old German couchette carriages aren't well suited to winter conditions. The windows don't seal properly so that when I took the Snälltåget night train last winter, I woke up with a headache because of the cold draught. Did you have any similar issues on your trip?
Very interesting video! I am going with this train on Saturday but I am sitting in a normal sitting coupe! Really curious how that looks like because I only see videos of the sleeping cabins. Did you see those sitting coupes?
