Summer in Scandinavia
The fourth book in the trilogy of student travels. Douglas Adams, creator of the Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy had a trilogy of five books, so I reason that I can also have more than three in a trilogy although there are two more books planned so ultimately, it will be a trilogy of six.
After my gap year working as a forklift truck driver, I had earnt enough to fund my last year through university. I had also saved up my holiday entitlement and my manager was encouraging me to take some time off.
I had discovered Eurorail. For a single payment, it was a rail ticket valid in over thirty European countries that lasts a month giving unrestricted travel. I was hooked on the idea straight away and was the resolution of what I would do with my holiday entitlement.
I was going to use all my holiday entitlment in one go and use my rail ticket to cross Europe and explore Scandinavia. I handed in my notice and set off for my summer holiday before returning to university.
