Well the train trip is over and here is a short report...
INCREDIBLE...
...OK I will be more specific. It was hard but worth every second. We bought an Interrail ticket that covers all the trains in EU and some of the balcan countries, we made some rezervations so we wouldn't have to stand on the train and thats it. One big backpack on the back and lonelyplanet guide in my arms... We planed out trip to last 10 days and we choose the destinations with a reason that we could sleep on the train. Some times we had couchetes (it's like a coupe but it has bunkbads) so the traveling by night wasn't so hard. On Sicily we stayed for three days, we found a great place called Vicho (bad&brakfast) and it wasn't expensive. It only costed 50€ for a night for two persons in one room with shared bathroom. It was really hard to leave that place, the whole Sicily is so wonderfull and green like Slovenia. The only thing that we wanted to see there and couldn't was Etna, because of the silly bus shedule. But we will go there next time.
The trip was coming to an end when we came to Nice. It was the first of May and we still didn't know where will we be staying, but optimistic as allways we walked around and asking in hotels and b&bs for a free fooms. And the luck finally smiled at us, and we find a one star hotel named 'Orsay and again got a room with a big bed and it's own bathroom and after telling that we are student and so on the nice gentleman at the reception said that he could give us a free breakfast for 50€ (including a room
)for one night. So we were againg more than satisfied and went exploring the city. We dicovered the best icecream in the whole world
It was home made and it had big chunks of chocolate and oranges inside. It was named "Pims" like the cookies. It was really so delicious so you licked your fingers after eating it. So on out way back to home we made one more stop in Venice, but we didn't like it so much because of the big crowd but we escaped on one of the close islands and had a great time there.
Ok this is a really short summary of a trip, but let the pictures speak for themselfs.
Super potovanje sta si privoščila.
