Reports

During my travels, I received free accommodation for a night in exchange for writing a daily travel diary. This diary documented how I reached my next destination, the hosts who welcomed me, the food I was offered, and other experiences along the way. Below, you will find the archives of these extensive reports. Please note that English is not my native language, and most entries were written quickly, often around midnight. Enjoy!

Jasper National Park --> Vancouver (train ride)

After a night at the Chateau Jasper, it was time again to leave Jasper. I had breakfast in the hotel restaurant and got ready for my departure. The Viarail train was scheduled to leave at 3.15 pm for a 17 hour trip through the Canadian Rockies, arriving in Vancouver tomorrow morning.
