I've finally booked my tickets for #FOSDEM, after some delays due to decision paralysis.
Once again it will be bus Helsinki-Warsaw and #NightTrain Berlin-Bruxelles ( #EuropeanSleeper), because I don't feel like spending 300 โฌ on Swedish trains this time. For some reason, Berlin-Warsaw doesn't run the whole way on February 5th, so I'll need to catch it in Frankfurt (Oder).
Got on the (in)famous bus Vaasa-Warsaw in Tallinn. It seems today I'm the only one going all the way to Warsaw from Finland. Two smiling drivers, that's new.
Got to Warsaw on time. The bus ride was uneventful, the driving not reckless. The usual one passenger who sometimes couldn't stop talking. I got a decent sleep and even managed to extend my legs sometimes. We got stuck on the S61 after ลomลผa for maybe 20 min due to an accident (?).
My go-to (Kulturalna) was still closed so I went to my usual fallback, a spacious chain place where I get an overpriced coffee to use the facilities. It's full of fancy office workers; and me washing in the bathroom.
If you have a connection in Warsaw central and at least 60 min to spare, I always recommend Vege kitchen in Chmielna 10. You can get a #vegan "small soup" for 4 โฌ in less than 5 min.
