Travels of a life

I used to live in Stockholm, and I love it because of its fantastic natural setting, at the crossroads of a lake and the sea, and the lifestyle of its people. I regularly go back there, and always with great pleasure.
I’ve always flown there, but this time, I wanted to go by train to visit Hamburg and Copenhagen along the way. This is also for ecological reasons because train travel emits the least CO2. So, I was curious to try to travel between the two capitals.
Traveling by train requires a different approach to time. The aim is no longer to get from point A to point B as quickly as possible but as pleasantly as possible. For this reason, I decided to make two different routes between the outward and return trips, with tourist stops of varying lengths.
On the outward journey, I had two objectives:
Paris – Stockholm by train

On the outward journey, I had two objectives:
- Visit Hamburg, a dynamic, rich, yet little-known port city.
- Take the new night train from Hamburg to Stockholm, inaugurated by Swedish Railways less than a year ago.
