Trainline is great within serval European countries, you can also purchase several railpasses on the Trainline website. Please do note that especially local regional offers can be better deals, however for easy point to point tickets I personally really prefer Trainline. This link will only be published at the moment Trainline can be used for the video that you see and in most video’s I also mention booking websites / tips.

Great video thanks. Merry Christmas
As a Swiss citizen, this is my personal opinion, and everyone is free to have a different one. I believe that Switzerland would need around 50 million Chinese workers to rebuild the country. Everything should be demolished and rebuilt by Chinese workers so that it ends up looking exactly like China.
