I did better. I made my brother send me an Interrail
card in Rovaniemi (Finland), where I stayed two nights
coming back from Northern Norway (near Hammerfest).
The card should last for one month, so I went to
Sweden, Oslo, Bergen (Norway), took a boat to
Newcastle (England), then the train again to Wales,
then the boat to Ireland, the train to Dublin, then to
Cork, then I hired a cycle for 5 days in Western
Ireland, then I took the train back to Dublin, then
the boa
