Planning for a round trip in Northern Europe:During the summer it's too hot for us to go to Southern Europe, but we are very eager to travel somewhere. Now we are drawing a plan to travel by ferry, buses and trains in Northern Europe. Some of the places we want to visit: Berlin, Amsterdam, Bremen and Copenhagen. Our first plan was to take the train from Stockholm where we live to Copenhagen. But that plan has already been changed, Gunilla found a summer deal ad about a ferry from Stockholm to Rostock, only 26 Euro. Those tickets we have already bought. We have also booked the first two nights at the hostel, Blue Doors hostel Altstadt in Rostock old town. It's a hostel but we have have our own room and they serve breakfast for an extra cost. We only pre book the first stay, the other we take day by day. The round trip can be different from this: The ferry and the hotel at Rostock are already booked:
This is a new ferry line that started as late as 2021. All countries we travel through use the Euro currency without Sweden and Denmark that still has there own currency. If we get in trouble during the travel we can take a flight to home from Berlin or Amsterdam. |
Google Map over Rostock (Germany):From our location in Stockholm we take the local train to the harbor Nynäshamn, about an hour travel. From Nynäshamn we take the ferry to Rostock, an 18 hour trip. At Rostock we have booked room for two days at Blue Doors Hostel, it's in the old town and very close to the harbor. We need to find what bus and tram to take us from the ferry to the old town of Rostock. Interesting things to visit:

Google Map over Berlin (Germany):A lot of people talk about Berlin as a wonderful place to visit, we have never been there so a stop at that place is a must. We have listed some places near the train station that we can walk or take a bus to. We don't expect to have time to visit all of them, maybe we stay two days in Berlin. Interesting things to visit:
