Some French Folk on the Train Trip to Weimar


On the train to Weimar, I met Guillaume & Celine, two friends travelling together from Strasburg, France. They’d been to Romania, Prague, Hungary in search of the wildness in the East of Europe. Even though they were once attacked by a dog, & found travelling around Romania devoid of tourism elements (semi-wild), they were surprised to find that the places they’d visited were fairly similar to towns in Western Europe.
We had a wonderful conversation the whole trip, discussing everything from whether to buy residential property in the current economic crisis, to the continuing plight of Australian Aboriginals, to where we’d been on our travel journeys. Best of all, we had some great laughs. It was just a pity I couldn’t have continued the train trip with them to Frankfurt. I did enjoy their company.
