All the internal 🇪🇺 #CrossBorderRail lines are now mapped, as are those to 🇬🇧🇨🇭🇳🇴🇱🇮🇸🇲🇻🇦
Now I need to work on the tricky ones that are missing: 🇪🇺 to 🇺🇦🇲🇩, and 🇷🇸🇲🇪🇦🇱🇧🇦🇲🇰🇽🇰

Pink icon: I was there this year
Orange: I've been there another time
Grey: ones I'm missing...
A particularly scenic yet not very busy railway line along the southern shore of #LagoMaggiore, from #Cadenazzo🇨🇭 near #Bellinzona to #Luino 🇮🇹: single track with an S-Bahn type passenger service every other hour (plus quite some freight). Pictures taken earlier this afternoon.
Even when crowded and muddy #Munich's #sustainable #winterfest #Tollwood stays welcoming, pleasant and friendly. #concerts, #performances, #organic food and #fairtrade gifts, the market boothes keep open til Friday to come.

Non-cyclists clearly do not understand that mandatory helmet laws are NOT a matter of vanity or keeping your hair style intact (my "hair style" is non-existent, as everyone familiar with the real world me certainly knows).
These kind of laws that put the onus on the most vulnerable in #traffic are fundamentally wrong. These laws attempt to reduce unnecessary damage while painting an efficient and healthy mode of #transport as dangerous.
These kind of laws hurt #cycling as such.
Hmmm. MTR is considering selling MTR Express (MTRX) in Sweden. Despite excellent punctuality (the best on the Stockholm-Göteborg route) the trains are still making losses...

What chance for private firms if even this route makes no money?
#Munich-based #organic #supermarket #Basic filed for bankruptcy, but shops are keeping open for the time being.

Independent #zerowaste #supermarkets are facing a hard time, although they offer both, a #stress-free, ad-free #shopping experience, #organic, often fairly produced and short-travelled #food that's good for both, humans and the planet, and the opportunity to buy just as much as needed.
If you want such friendly alternatives to survive, support their crowd-funding - https://www.startnext.com/ohne-laden for the shop in #Munich I buy most stuff at - and buy #Xmas food and gifts there: https://www.organictraveller.de/zero_waste

Es braucht endlich verpflichtende gesetzliche Regeln, die solche schlimmen Unfälle vermeiden helfen.
Als Radfahrer fordere ich ein lautes Signal beim LKW, sobald er den Blinker nach rechts betätigt. (analog dem Rückwärtsfahrtuten)
Das Problem ist ja nicht, dass der Radfahrer todesmutig auf seiner Vorfahrt besteht, sd dass er gar nicht mit dem Abbiegen des LKWs rechnet.
ZB
-Blinker schlecht zu sehen.
-LKW holt erst nach links aus / Radfahrer ist getäuscht
Wir sind heute #TeamRosenkohl! 😎
(Was die #Solawi eben so bringt)
Bei dieser Gelegenheit habe ich eine Frage an die #DresdenBubble, speziell #SchönfelderHochland: Gibt es eine Solawi (Solidarische Landwirtschaft), der man sich ab April 2023 anschließen kann? (Unsere ist uns für die Helfereinsätze zu weit weg.)
While I am at it: The #organictraveller's #travelnotes on #Kerala are hopelessly outdated, help (and #boosts) very much appreciated!
If you are in #Kochi / #Cochin, #Trivandrum / #Thiruvananthapuram and around I'd be grateful to hear whether places listed in the https://www.organictraveller.de/organictraveller-kerala articles are still operating (in the described way).
I'm also keen to hear about newer places offering #organic #fairly traded/produced #food and goods!

My last visit to #NewDelhi dates back to before I started to put down #travelnotes on #organic shops and #Restaurants but when I found https://www.organicgermanbakeshop.com/christmas-special/ today, I got a nostalgic feeling. If I get the opportunity to come back, I'll certainly pay a visit to this special place, a #German #organic #bakery in #Delhi / #India.
0⃣8⃣ "This journey on the IC 'Corona' #nighttrain between #Budapest🇭🇺 & #Brașov🇷🇴 is simply brilliant as it has a #MÁV🇭🇺 #diningcar available the entire route, which is rare for European sleeper trains." 😍 #Diningcarlendar2022 #SleeperAndEater #FensterAuf

Streckenfahrplan 2022/23, gültig ab 11.12.22.
Mehr Direktfahrten nach Frankfurt,
doch die fehlenden zweigleisigen Abschnitte lassen große Lücken.

@SabineCrook Super, deine Pony-Retourkutsche zum "Oh, aber ich muss ja wohl irgendwo (falsch-) #parken". Ich versuche das mit der Wohnungsanalogie: Wenn du dir einen Schrank kaufst und dann feststellst, dass deine Wohnung dafür zu klein ist, stellst du ihn ja auch nicht ins Treppenhaus und sagst zum Vermieter: Mein Schrank muss ja wo stehen, ich bezahle schließlich schon Miete.
