    Oh I love snow aswell, watching the snowflakes dancing in the shine of streetlights. And the feeling of when you're on public transport, it is cold outside and late evening, you are just tired leaning your head against the window and stare out into the snowy night, longing for your bed with the monotonous noise of the vehicle moving (good here you are basically in bed already and can snuggle up staring into the snowy night till the world gets blurry in front of your eyes...). Love it! Your morning impressions on the train (view to the snowy outside reminds me to back in the day when I did my apprenticeship and had to go to class by train 50 kilometres away. The crisp cold outside and the bright snow and in the inside the heat was on and it was nice and toasty, you almost didn't wanna leave the train again...

Your choice of food snacks was amazing .. things we never see. I truly love your expressions of quirky things you say in the vlogs .. just like I hear here. We have many overnight sleeper trains here in Oz some go 1000s of klms. Don't stop making these interesting journey vlogs they are so entertaining. Bushyboy Oz.

    Undoubtedly awesome! As a rail fan and photographer, I could relate well to the excitement that this journey takes you through. An overnight journey on a train in sleeper class is pure bliss. More so, when you've got to see the snowy landscape in the night. And I completely agree, even ordinary foods taste delicious in sleeper class coaches. I experience it every time. What I enjoyed the most was the empty, neat and clean platforms and station arenas. Looking ahead for more train videos from you.
