Just catching up with this video now. Your Polish skills are fantastic, I dare say you have a good teacher 😜 Alicja. It's not the easiest of languages to learn. My wife is Polish, it's a struggle 😂. Enjoyed this older video. Always enjoy your trips. Great content as usual.

7:40 Bardzo ładnie mówisz po polsku, super!😁
Awesome video, the train actually looks nice and clean (obviously not the most comfortable bed in the world tho!). Such a shame with this noisy horn; would give me a heart attack😂

I'm enjoying some of your older vids from 3 - 5 years ago. This one was great. I felt like I was there riding along with you and seeing the sights that you did. It was awesome that you spoke Polish to the train and airport staff. Good effort. So brave. I also like your more recent vids with the lovely and lively Alicja. What a treasure she is. Buy her a nice cottage on the Scottish coast! ❤

A bit of a trip down memory lane for me. I lived in CZ for many years and one of my favourite trips was to Krakow. Yes, the train takes forever, so I used to take the train from Prague to Český Těšín and then a bus to Krakow. No doubt you have explored Krakow very well now Steve, it's a great city. Cheers Del

You're editing skills coupled with a nice bit of humour have definitely improved since the early videos. I still like the more raw approach which many YouTubers pull off well including yourself. Great trip. Look forward the next video. No pressure though Steve. 😆😆. Must go to Prague especially with the relaxed Covid rules 👍

Very interesting journey. That train horn must have been upsetting to say the least.
Your Polish is very impressive. 👌👏👏👍😎

You looked so YOUNG back then!

Thanks. That was a very informative video.

@maddax5543 3 years ago

thanks for the information, great video. Do you know whether the night train also runs in the opposite direction from Krakow to Prague?

I'm watching other videos of yours now, this was interesting, that was a nice sleeper room. And the bathroom with shower looked awesome too. We travel in trains in the US and ear plugs are always a good idea to help you sleep. I find the motion of the train puts me to sleep. Thank you for a great video.

Another great older vlog. You can tell that you are getting more comfortable.

Super journey. The train to the airport is great as it only takes about 20 min

I did a Central Europe trip flying into Munich and taking the train to Prague--->Salzburg---->Munich and it was delightful. I'm from the USA and the train experience in Europe is in another league. I'm looking forward to exploring Europe again by train.

Another memorable report. In the very olden days I used to frequently travel by sleeper between Milan and Frankfurt. The luxury in those days would have even impressed Agatha Christie. That notwithstanding I could never sleep. I always had the sensation that I was slipping out of bed. BTW was that a Scottish accent hiding behind the Polish?
