Normal day at the lab + evening walk of an hour. Started trying out actifit! Looking forward to see if it works reliably. Also, it's nice that my thousands of daily steps have finally a point! Edit: I'll

By geralt on pixabay.com As some of you know, I recently finished my B.Sc. in biology. As fewer of you know, I will start my Master's not this, but next year. This leaves me some time for other things

By Buntysmum on pixabay.com There I go, promising to focus more on my main blog, and promptly posting a recipe here. Eh. This salad was created when I only had red lentils, two mushy avocados, and some

It had been a long month, and I covered a lot of ground together with @reggaemuffin. Denmark, Sweden, Finland, Poland, Austria, Romania, Hungary, Croatia, Slovenia, Italy, Switzerland, France, and the

@thi-js had to leave early in the morning to save people's lives, which left us to explore Amsterdam on our own ... hadn't there been @mathowl! @mathowl took the train all the way to Amsterdam, just to

Paris really wanted to get rid of us, as we were completely drenched by rain on our way to the train. Of course, the wagon our reservation was in was far, far back, so we had to run through the rain for

Our second to last stop was in France, to visit @lemouth and his family. We met up in Paris and then took the train to his hometown, which is even more in the middle of nothing than @soundworks ‘ place.

By geralt on pixabay.com Travel posts will resume next week. You expected a regular posting schedule? This accound is called random for a reason ... What did you expect? Each year for my birthday party,

Bern had already been fully explored, and our host discouraged us from using our interrail ticket for a short trip to Zurich. Instead, he told us to visit Interlaken, a city with a name that basically

At 9 in the morning, we waved Florence goodbye and continued to Bern. I was pleasantly surprised to, for the first time since leaving Finland, have announcements inside the train. I didn’t realize how

Not wanting to, again, be at the mercy of hundreds of tourists, we picked a location that seemed far enough outside of the city. A small park, with free entry, about an hour walk away from the place where

The rest of the train ride was okay-ish. It’s not particularly fun to spend the night in a train where you can’t lie down, locked in with two teenage girls (or at least they behaved like it). But at 6:14

Our last day in Slovenia was also spent with @bachuslib , who drove with us to a lake named “Bled”. Despite the name, the water wasn’t bloody-red, but a beautiful blue-green. We drove up to the castle

Breakfast while looking at the blue-green river is something wonderful, I must say. I could really get used to it. They make weird ice cream here In the afternoon, @bachuslib picked us up and we climbed

Ljubljana, the city of the dragon. @bachuslib picked us up at the train station and brought us to the apartment where we’d stay. There, he had already prepared food for us. So. Much. Food. I briefly wondered

The 19th was a slow day, dedicated to refueling our bodies and brains, and giving @reggaemuffin a chance to work on his bachelor thesis. I, on the other hand, spent the time watching “Disenchantment”.

In the morning, we took a train to the center of Zagreb, where we were scheduled to meet with @buzzbeergeek ! He showed us around, and we had a coffee (smoothie) at a place that claimed to serve “The worst

After waiting out the midday heat, we applied sunscreen and made our way to a nearby lake. By “nearby” I mean that we walked a bit over an hour through the sun. Bad planning on my hand, as we arrived there

As we were scheduled to leave by train in the afternoon, we got up early to see some more of Budapest, but not after eating breakfast. Now, being used to German pricing and portion sizes, we ordered our

Romania had been beautiful, and @alexdory promised us that there was much more to see, but our train left before noon, which gave us time for a nice breakfast, but not to see more things. Still, the time
