The Man in Seat 61

This website was so good I bought the book. The
Man in Seat 61 tells you how to travel from the UK to anywhere in Europe and
beyond. My first journey planned using this site starts this Thursday, a fairly
simple three-train affair from London to Copenhagen, involving my first ever
night in a sleeper carriage.

This website makes you realise just how easy
and quick it can be to travel Europe by train, it's also not that expensive. My
sleeper train cost £40 – that's not bad considering it's my “hotel” too, and
hopefully I'll be refreshed as it pulls into the Denmark's capital early the
next morning.

There's something romantic about travelling by train, plus
it's less stressful with less hanging around in queues than airports, and that's before getting smug about environmental issues. Well
that's the theory, I'll report back on my first major train trip here next
week.

You can visit the website here, http://www.seat61.com, and buy the
book here.

Seat 61?? – The reason why the site is named that is
revealed here.
