At first I was like: "Damn, we don't have that in Estonia!" And then I remember we have busses that travel to all of the Baltics, Finland, Russia and even Poland.
last week the neighbours kid, who I haven't talked to in over 5 years, rang our doorbell and in his hands he held my bus pass! Apparently it fell out, I did not even notice and in a huge coincidence he was the one to find it!
Because Germans have manners and are clean people in general .. they also hire the staff to keep it maintained properly.. not like in the US where corporations keep big profits and don’t maintain anything .. also people in the US mostly don’t care and litter ..
There is a restaurant / bistro on the long distance trains and I've seen many coffee ladies going thorough the other carts. The prices are actually pretty decent. By far the nicest way to travel long distance
When I was in Vietnam on a tour I took a sleeping car on the train from Hanoi to Hue, The trains there run much slower. The trains in Germany are fast. So no need for a sleeping car but the international trains some of them that go overnight have sleeping cars. As for food, yes, a lady come around and sells food. And you're advised to bring your own toilet paper because you might not find any in the toilet.
Yeah, I would NOT feel good about leaving my things unsupervised on any trains I've ridden in the US. I've seen too much on the L and Metra (Chicago trains).
one time i left my luggage at the front of the bus and went sit somewhere else and someone brought it to the driver bc they thought it was lost 😂 but i do often keep it within my sight but i don't want it to be in the way of other passengers
In Spain we also have those luggage compartments and I don't trust them either, I will haul my heavy suitcase and put it in the overhead compartment just to keep it in sight
@lizzietemple5449 as an Indian I will give u simple solution. Buy luggage chains with lock and key to lock your luggage to the stand on which it is kept i.e. luggage compartment. That way u can be partially sure no one can steal it That's what we Indians do.
Some things to point out: many European long-distance trains have beds, but only at night. And on most long-distance you can buy some food or drink from the attendant. And some even have a bar or a dining car. And there's always a conductor, but the train is long so it takes them some time to get to you.
@@annemettefrederiksen7751as asian,if i do that,and then lose my luggage, people will say "serve you right, shouldve never left your lugage unintended or being too naive to trust other people than urself". Theft is super bad here in asia..

I'm from Poland and generaly stations in central europ are most standar places you can get robbed. I really recomend to travel with clip hook attached to sliders and zipping the bag to the one end of zipper so sliders would be closer to your right hand(if u are right handed) there u can grab it easly and feel if someone is struggling with clip:)
American here so probably not a huge surprise while at work during a holiday at night had someone steal my cell phone. This was like over 15 years ago but I worked in the toy section of Walmart (popular/infamous department grocery store) it was Thanksgiving night (retail so usually opened and work most major holidays and thanksgiving is a major holiday) but because it was the holiday we were rather slow. I had been texting with a friend while working (I know.. I was 20) and went to do something and put my phone UNDER my notepad I kept with me on the cart I was working from. I had walked away for maybe 2 minutes and when I got back it was gone. It took a minute to be able to try to call my phone due to the way the number was set up it was long distance and our work phones except the manager's office ones couldn't call long distance. I tried to call and it went straight to voice mail.
As a Indian this is so relatable😭😭 I need food and bed in a train. By the way live your content girl!! You radiate positivity. ❤❤keep growing Edit: o my god 3k likes. Dad come back home from your milk store, your daughter is famous now.
I don't know why she didn't mention it, but there is. You have a restaurant part for food and drinks, but yes, you probably won't get fruits and boiled eggs.
And bed/sleeper trains are slowly coming back too! Austrian ÖBB runs a sleeper carriage service and Czech trains too I think? Sleeper trains are kind of more common in Eastern Europe though. Most long-distance trains in the USSR had only beds, during the daytime ride they'd just be used as a soft bench.
@@Xarx42hat do they serve then for snacks im genuinely curious? I love knowing how the train is different in different countries and what people eat on them. I live in Canada but on longer distance trains an employee with a cart comes around selling water, tea, coffee, wine, simple cocktails and ofc milk and juice for kids, sometimes the bar cart has small snacks like chips, granola bars and yogurt parfaits. Then another cart comes with food, depending on the time of day also has water and juice bottles/boxes but also full meals like pasta, baked fish, big sandwichs, even can order Is charcuterie board with wine that have to come back to bring to you but still you can order it. They also have bagels, oatmeal or a breakfast plate in the morning. All meals and snacks have small options like fruit and boiled eggs though. I love getting an egg and small bowl of fruit when on the train. In business class the food is included so whenever the price is not much more than economy I take that for the fancy full meals, I love the little breads you get at dinner and lunch, always take advantage of the free bar cart showing up in Toronto a bit tipsy LOL. For the 2-8 day train trips across Canada they do have a restaurant car though as well but for 10hr usually they would just have the carts going around offering food and drink.
as someone who has recently moved to japan, I’m amazed at how trusting/trustworthy the people are and am slowly getting used to leaving my luggage at the racks instead of my seat

@@blackhitler8572 Correct. Nobody wonders why in Japan people can leave their stuff unattended even on the streets without getting stolen. Nobody wants to name the elephant in the room because it's "politically incorrect".
This is so accurate. My dads best friend, Gerard was German. Dad always tells me the story of how when he first arrived to Ecuador he left his bag on the upper compartment of a bus he was riding. Of course someone stole the nice new bag, and Gerard couldn’t believe it. He kept asking how somebody could have taken it, since it wasn’t theirs!
Im from Ecuador, and when I visit I don’t like keeping my phone in my back pocket or wearing jewelry. It’s a nice country for sure, but being cautious is a must.
@@cuteinjacksonsvoiceeveryone says that, and I’m wondering why that is. What makes the difference between trains that run on time and those that don’t? Obviously traffic isn’t a factor when it comes to trains… so what’s the unpredictable factor? Intuitively, theoretically, it seems fairly straightforward for trains to keep on time.
@@destituteanddecadent9106 There are various reasons, for example, people on the tracks, delayed personnel, or a defective door are the most common reasons. If you ask me, I believe they are spinning the wheel to decide which excuse they can use next hahaha
@@destituteanddecadent9106 Honestly, the train system is great but in parts its not the most modern so you have quite a few technical issues. Then one delay can potentially mess up multiple routes. If a fast intercity train had a delay (which, when they do is often around an an hour), the short distance trains that drive much slower often have to let them pass, which can mean having to come to a halt. The signals (train trafficlights) also seem to be an issue a lot.
I’m British & we’ve always put our luggage away like that. Really far from us but ridiculously close to the door. I watch my bag every single time I travel! 😂
@@MegaJefflin That doesn't help the anxiety. Someone taking the bag on their way out. The train company "don't worry, we filmed it for you so you can watch it and relive it"
I only get anxious when we are at railway stations. When the train is moving for a few hours, I don't mind cause, where is the thief gonna go with my luggage?
I feel that. That's why I prefer the space above the seats to store my lugage, if it is to big to keep it with me directly. It's much more likely that I notice someone reaching above my head. But there isn't always enough space...
I was so scared to be away from my luggage the first time being on a Korean train 😅 But it turns out people were super helpful, and assisted the foreign student with her 4 suitcases haha
The us actually has a larger train system than all of europe the catch being most of it is transporting coal and oil and stuff like that so technically we do have trains in the us
When they say their trains go between countries it's basically like American trains going through states. Which we have several that go across the continent
I live in the most southern spot of the Netherlands, the best thing about it is that I can cycle to Luxemburg, Belgium and Germany within 1 hour, and reach france on my old bike in around 1,5-2,0 hours The actual best part is that I can drive to germany to fuel up my car, and drive to france within an hour for some groceries. I just provide from all countries
@@Fgafgafgafthe BEST part is that there are no borders and it's awesome. I now live in Croatia and they are now part of Schengen zone and I now travel much more, border to Slovenia was basically formality but still they would take your passport and you should wait and now I could go wherever I want in Europe and it's just great. And main difference is that each country is unique with different languages, different culture, architecture, and even different nature :) so I think live in Europe is more interesting than in USA

America used to be rife with the honor system. I don't know what changed, but something did. At my local state park there is a collection bin called "The Honor Bin". Must be nearly 30 years old. Has paint worn away at the top from use. It's used to collect entrance fee when the ranger isn't there. I still do it everytime, but I don't think most people do
@@leonz3296I mean that really depends where you are? I can be in the Netherlands in like an hour and a half and Venlo is even included in the German-wide train ticket
Fruit shops in many countries in EU with no shop keeper , just prices written on fruits with a box at one corner where people were expected to deposit the money of what ever the bought from the shop in the absence of the owner was something that touched me as an Indian . Such trust and honesty !
That sucks. I think the stuff you generally carry on your person is more theft prone, since it usually has stuff like your phone and wallet. There will always be a risk of stuff like that getting swiped, even if you're in a place where this kind of theft is less common
The racks are usually for bigger luggage, whilst backpacks and handbags can go above your seat or on on the floor in front of you. Big luggage is more difficult and noticable to steal, which is why its pretty safe to leave it.
When she asked if the trains go to other countries, I felt that personally. Living in Finland, the only foreign city that can be reached by train is St. Petersburg and even that connection is now halted.
@@dirkbecker2961I live near a town that's pretty much completely dead now because there are no tourists. It's pretty weird seeing all the things they built just for them all empty. Ps. No finn wants to visit there it's so ugly I don't know what the russians ever saw in that town lol.
@@FannomacritaireSuomia big problem is that planes to Finland cost a lot of money. Last I checked there are no low cost companies operating between my country and Finland, so all flights are more than 100€. I wanted to go this summer to visit a friend but I had to decide against it.
I'm Russian and I'm sorry about what we did. Until 2020s Belarus protests happened, I didn't believe we lived in fascist state, I only thought "damn, our TV is worsening every day"
Systems built off trust would never work in the US. Few have the integrity for that system to operate properly and it would all fall apart on the first day. I’m an American who was raised in one of our ‘top most dangerous cities’ and I can’t imagine leaving my luggage like that or not having my ticket checked by staff! I wanna go to Germany even more now. There seems to be so much less crime.
@@wannabedrewafualo that is not the experience of every person in the US. Different states and cities have different levels of feeling secure. Besides, how did they purchase the tickets, or get to the train terminal? Someone, somewhere checked that they had tickets.
Luggage can indeed be stolen, even in European trains. However, stealing a big, potentially heavy suitcase in a intercity train is risky. Steal it while the train is moving and you will attract attention. Steal it at a station and the owner may be also leaving the train and be just behind you. A thief would prefer to steal a small luggage on the overhead racks while the traveller is asleep. Nevertheless, even a European may be as nervous as this Vietnamese lady.
@@wannabedrewafualoI travel from central il to Chicago by amtrak really often and half the time they don't check my ticket and they also have big luggage racks at the end of cars to store your stuff in. I dont understand your comment cause this is exactly how the US train system works too.
Really depends on where you are, what train you're taking etc. There are private berths, which are more expensive obviously, and berths where you may share with one to three other people. Some are en-suite so you have your own private shower and bathroom.
In Malaysia, night shift trains do have berths. There are berths in open area which is not in compartments (like double decker, the berths on top is cheper than bottom) and berths in compartments (which is more expensive). We don’t have moving lady vendor but we have cafeteria cabin where you can buy some light snacks and coffee/drinks
One time i was in india with my family (i was a child, probably less than 9) and we took a train from one city to another that was multiple days ride. It was me, my older sister, our parents, and my dads parents. Since it was a multi day ride, we got a sleeper cabin with bunk beds. The way they worked was that there were two sets of 3 bunks each. The lower and upper ones were rigid and didnt move, while the middle bunks could hinge down to act as a backrest while sitting on the lower bunk. It was really cool and the only time in my life that ive taken a multi day train ride. Me and my sister were on the top bunks (obviously) and occasionally during the day we would climb up there and watch cartoons or draw and just hang out. It was really unique and really fun.
trains are still running in France ? strikes all the time, no electricity because of the krauts, Arabs stealing your stuff and r4ping women, train running over pets to "be on time" for the only time of their existence...
same! that's why I always tie my luggage to my leg or arm, in case someone tried to rob me, it happened so many times that I've been traumatized by it 😭
We really need that here in Germany. Most the sell is sometimes coffee. There are food carts, though. (And they bring you the food if you’re in first class, which sometimes isn’t even that much more expensive)
😅We do. But if you plan to use them if you ever travel Germany, do not expect them to be on time. That is past. It is more like a never ending lesson in nihilism and frustration tolerance.
Very relatable. Had same experience in Finland. In Ukraine you usually can ask conductor (a guy who checks your tickets) for tee, coffee and snacks Last guy that I talked to was like more than 24 hours on his shift
@@Meisha-san ?? Don't the long distance trains work well any more? I remember taking the Trans-Karoo in 1995... slow by European standards but I didn't feel unsafe. The only exception was the attendant's warning to shut windows in stations to prevent thieves from snatching stuff from outside ...
In Brazil we don't even have trains to drive people to a place to another. And we barely have trains to transport products or raw-materials😭😭 OUR COUNTRY HAS THE SIZE OF A CONTINENT AND WE ALMOST DON'T HAVE TRAINS
That is because of the American lobby for us to buy cars. We idiots, used to have a train system built as the English model, but some rich people got their pockets full of money and voilà we are an almost trainless nation. It's infuriating. Sad greetings from Rio
Some ICE trains in Germany do have an onboard restaurant where you can purchase snacks and drinks along your journey. It's like a separate wagon. But you have to go there yourself, they won't serve you at your seat. Trains that travel more regionally/ shorter distances mostly don't offer any snacks or drinks. So you'd either bring your own stuff or get something out of a shop at the train stations before, along or after your journey.
Hello from Vietnam, I'm just curious, whenever I see Indian trains, they're overpacked and there're people clinging to the sides. So I'm wondering how common it is. Or do people just promote the "crazy" stuff alot and reality is more often chill?
@Juneessary I guess you are talking about local trains which are indeed overpacked during peak hours.For long distance journeys we have Express trains which have reserved seats...so only you could sit in your reserved seat/berth .
@@Juneessarywell it depends there is a carriage called as general class which is free of cost so anyone can come.. this is where all rush happens but not in reserved coaches there are more reserved coaches then general class.. but you usually don't see people hanging from the door ..
@@taniaguhabiswas5245 thank you for your answer. I guess it's kinda like some of our buses during rush hours.

(I'd never been on a train because my hometown is on a highland and we only travel by coaches or planes
Some Italians almost walked off the train with my luggage. They were so drunk, they just picked one that looked like theirs and didn’t check it. Thank God I stay alert.
There are trains with beds in Germany, they are just not on every train. There is also a board restaurant on every train that travels nationally or internationally where you can buy food. Just to clear up some misconceptions.
@@LCraftGHG "famous last words" means the thing someone is saying wont happen, then does happen. In this case the bag gets stolen even though the guy said no one will steal it.
To be fair, it is true 99% of the time, especially if you lock it. As most people only have clothes and washing stuff in their suitcase, no one would go to the trouble of stealing it.
@@zarasbazaaras a german I want that too!! There's an overpriced Bistro on the ice but it's rubbish and the prices are ridiculously high. 0,5L of water are like 5€ or so 😂 I'd love for someone to sell chai and fruit on the train. Especially when it's at a reasonable price
When we travelled in China a couple of years ago, the speed train had a place where you store your luggage and we couldn’t see it either! Kept telling myself that it was like traveling in airplane! Have to trust the process! 😂😂
Guys don't believe this. My friends bag with his new iPad and laptop got stolen when he was on an ICE from Salzburg to Munich. He had gone to use the bathroom for just 5 mins. Keep your bags safe when on the DB!

Ha ha..we put our luggage in the luggage area, and I was like her, worried it would be stolen, then 2 dodgey looking people got on, they were having a bit of a snoop at the luggage and I said to my husband I was concerned about them....we watched them closely, then they got interested in us and came over and started asking us questions... my husband asked who did they think they were to ask us questions and they flipped out I.D. they were border inspection 😂😂😂😂
Yes the boiled eggs, bananas, sweet potatoes, bottled water vendor. And if you stop at a location that's known for something you can also get coconut pie, empanadas, fritters, rice cakes etc....
I'm German and I'm always worried someone might not steal but accidentally take my luggage. I always try to sit as close as possible so I can watch it or I literally get up every 10 minutes and act like I need to take something out of it to check if it's still there. One time a person literally moved my luggage for no reason and I couldn't find it anymore. Found it after five minutes, I panicked so hard. I hate this.
Ahhh! This was me and my mom a few months ago on our first trip to Europe (we were born in South America). I had the same questions 😂 and I would check our bags every other big stop 😅
I always feel like I need my bag right with me on a bus/train. I don’t even trust the seat next to me! That’s mostly because i started doing it to avoid forgetting it
As a Brit who did a German exchange I can confirm that the levels of trust are so much higher, I didnt leave my stuff on the train away from me or anywhere else (cuz as a Brit thats like asking for it to be stolen) but there was a day on the beach and we literally just left our stuff and went off swimming. No stealing. Felt weird.
This part about compatibility and common interests is key!! The way the media will glorify “odd couple” tropes like “the valedictorian and the jock” is super harmful. I think we don’t place enough emphasis on hobbies and passions; the way we spend our free time says so much about what we value. I am dating someone with whom I share many common interests for the first time, and hanging out is so fun.
In Germany I always make sure to reserve a seat from which I can see the luggage or I put it over my head if it’s light enough. In Korea I learned to not care at all. People will leave all their bags and everything at their seat when they go to toilet or something. Even their laptops and phones and purses. Took me a while to develop that kind of trust haha
Meanwhile in SG: The only train we have is the MRT and LRT and it's public transport within a tiny island country so u carry all your belongings with you. Also no eating and drinking. Not even plain water (i think, but no one dares to try anyway). At least the trips are really short, unless you change lines a lot.

Some things to point out: many European long-distance trains have beds, but only at night. And on most long-distance you can buy some food or drink from the attendant. And some even have a bar or a dining car. And there's always a conductor, but the train is long so it takes them some time to get to you.
To be fair I don’t trust my luggage to be by itself regardless of the country 😂
In my country, we just ask our fellow passengers tobwatch it, we are careful, but not completely paranoid.

I'm from Poland and generaly stations in central europ are most standar places you can get robbed.

American here so probably not a huge surprise while at work during a holiday at night had someone steal my cell phone.
This was like over 15 years ago but I worked in the toy section of Walmart (popular/infamous department grocery store) it was Thanksgiving night (retail so usually opened and work most major holidays and thanksgiving is a major holiday) but because it was the holiday we were rather slow. I had been texting with a friend while working (I know.. I was 20) and went to do something and put my phone UNDER my notepad I kept with me on the cart I was working from.
I had walked away for maybe 2 minutes and when I got back it was gone.
It took a minute to be able to try to call my phone due to the way the number was set up it was long distance and our work phones except the manager's office ones couldn't call long distance.
I tried to call and it went straight to voice mail.
As a mexican same
I learned from my travels in Brazil to keep at least one body part (mine) draped over each piece of luggage or belonging.
Yesss, they don't know the true fear like we do 😂😂

I don't know why she didn't mention it, but there is. You have a restaurant part for food and drinks, but yes, you probably won't get fruits and boiled eggs.
Well we do have a restaurant wagon in long distance trains.
But you need to go there, there's no service at your seat (unless you're in first class)
And bed/sleeper trains are slowly coming back too! Austrian ÖBB runs a sleeper carriage service and Czech trains too I think? Sleeper trains are kind of more common in Eastern Europe though.
Most long-distance trains in the USSR had only beds, during the daytime ride they'd just be used as a soft bench.
@@Xarx42hat do they serve then for snacks im genuinely curious? I love knowing how the train is different in different countries and what people eat on them.
I live in Canada but on longer distance trains an employee with a cart comes around selling water, tea, coffee, wine, simple cocktails and ofc milk and juice for kids, sometimes the bar cart has small snacks like chips, granola bars and yogurt parfaits. Then another cart comes with food, depending on the time of day also has water and juice bottles/boxes but also full meals like pasta, baked fish, big sandwichs, even can order Is charcuterie board with wine that have to come back to bring to you but still you can order it. They also have bagels, oatmeal or a breakfast plate in the morning. All meals and snacks have small options like fruit and boiled eggs though. I love getting an egg and small bowl of fruit when on the train. In business class the food is included so whenever the price is not much more than economy I take that for the fancy full meals, I love the little breads you get at dinner and lunch, always take advantage of the free bar cart showing up in Toronto a bit tipsy LOL.
For the 2-8 day train trips across Canada they do have a restaurant car though as well but for 10hr usually they would just have the carts going around offering food and drink.
as someone who has recently moved to japan, I’m amazed at how trusting/trustworthy the people are and am slowly getting used to leaving my luggage at the racks instead of my seat
You are also not supposed to bring big bags on Japanese trains. That's what the luggage forwarding services are for.

This is so accurate. My dads best friend, Gerard was German. Dad always tells me the story of how when he first arrived to Ecuador he left his bag on the upper compartment of a bus he was riding.

@@cuteinjacksonsvoiceeveryone says that, and I’m wondering why that is. What makes the difference between trains that run on time and those that don’t? Obviously traffic isn’t a factor when it comes to trains… so what’s the unpredictable factor?
Intuitively, theoretically, it seems fairly straightforward for trains to keep on time.
@@destituteanddecadent9106 There are various reasons, for example, people on the tracks, delayed personnel, or a defective door are the most common reasons. If you ask me, I believe they are spinning the wheel to decide which excuse they can use next hahaha
Why the trainin the road
@@destituteanddecadent9106 Honestly, the train system is great but in parts its not the most modern so you have quite a few technical issues. Then one delay can potentially mess up multiple routes. If a fast intercity train had a delay (which, when they do is often around an an hour), the short distance trains that drive much slower often have to let them pass, which can mean having to come to a halt. The signals (train trafficlights) also seem to be an issue a lot.
Their quite voices are so soothing 😌
They probably don't want to disturb other people on the train so they are quiet.
I’m British & we’ve always put our luggage away like that. Really far from us but ridiculously close to the door. I watch my bag every single time I travel! 😂

Same, and I'm trying to just learn to leave it be and relax but my anxiety just won't let me rest and forget about it...
@@MegaJefflin That doesn't help the anxiety. Someone taking the bag on their way out. The train company "don't worry, we filmed it for you so you can watch it and relive it"
@@flabbergast_sethey have to pay you back what was stolen anyways. Also theft on trains happens remarkably little
I'm German and I'm just as paranoid as Uyen. I'm constantly looking to my luggage cause you know, if I look away for one second, it might be gone 😂
I only get anxious when we are at railway stations. When the train is moving for a few hours, I don't mind cause, where is the thief gonna go with my luggage?
Yeah. The "refugees" have changed the collective mindset of an entire continent
I feel that. That's why I prefer the space above the seats to store my lugage, if it is to big to keep it with me directly. It's much more likely that I notice someone reaching above my head. But there isn't always enough space...

Long distance trains in Germany have restaurant cars and sometimes also people selling snacks.
It is nice living in a high trust society.
Trust system does not work in a country which allowed so many refugees in.
@@joekerr9036 Indeed, even a relatively small immigrant population from a low-trust culture will absolutely destroy social trust. :+ (
Much worse with ‘refugees’, which more often turn out to be vagrants and fugitives, who are not being persecuted in their home country, but rather being punished fairly for their crimes and misbehavior.
@@joekerr9036course it does. Apparently 😅 since germany has a lot of refugees
America used to be rife with the honor system. I don't know what changed, but something did. At my local state park there is a collection bin called "The Honor Bin". Must be nearly 30 years old.

My backpack did get stolen on a train in Germany leaving it there...
That sucks. I think the stuff you generally carry on your person is more theft prone, since it usually has stuff like your phone and wallet. There will always be a risk of stuff like that getting swiped, even if you're in a place where this kind of theft is less common
The racks are usually for bigger luggage, whilst backpacks and handbags can go above your seat or on on the floor in front of you. Big luggage is more difficult and noticable to steal, which is why its pretty safe to leave it.
My big suitcase, too
@@limi186That's terrible! 😮

When she asked if the trains go to other countries, I felt that personally. Living in Finland, the only foreign city that can be reached by train is St. Petersburg and even that connection is now halted.

@@FannomacritaireSuomia big problem is that planes to Finland cost a lot of money. Last I checked there are no low cost companies operating between my country and Finland, so all flights are more than 100€. I wanted to go this summer to visit a friend but I had to decide against it.

There are trains with beds actually! But those are special wagons reserved for night travel, and I think you need to especially book them.
As an American who recently traveled by train in Germany to Switzerland, this is accurate😆 I was checking my luggage and wanting to sleep 😂
I believe there are overnight trains available for such. The fare just costs more I believe?
Systems built off trust would never work in the US. Few have the integrity for that system to operate properly and it would all fall apart on the first day. I’m an American who was raised in one of our ‘top most dangerous cities’ and I can’t imagine leaving my luggage like that or not having my ticket checked by staff! I wanna go to Germany even more now. There seems to be so much less crime.
@@wannabedrewafualo that is not the experience of every person in the US. Different states and cities have different levels of feeling secure.
Besides, how did they purchase the tickets, or get to the train terminal? Someone, somewhere checked that they had tickets.
Luggage can indeed be stolen, even in European trains. However, stealing a big, potentially heavy suitcase in a intercity train is risky. Steal it while the train is moving and you will attract attention. Steal it at a station and the owner may be also leaving the train and be just behind you. A thief would prefer to steal a small luggage on the overhead racks while the traveller is asleep. Nevertheless, even a European may be as nervous as this Vietnamese lady.
@@wannabedrewafualoI travel from central il to Chicago by amtrak really often and half the time they don't check my ticket and they also have big luggage racks at the end of cars to store your stuff in. I dont understand your comment cause this is exactly how the US train system works too.
There are trains with sleeping compartments actually. They're awesome.
I mean, usually there are 4 beds per compartment, so if you don't like sleeping with strangers...
@@ferdinand3und4zigyou have four beds in a compartment? The last time I had a compartment it had two beds. It wasn't in Germany though.
Really depends on where you are, what train you're taking etc. There are private berths, which are more expensive obviously, and berths where you may share with one to three other people. Some are en-suite so you have your own private shower and bathroom.
In Malaysia, night shift trains do have berths. There are berths in open area which is not in compartments (like double decker, the berths on top is cheper than bottom) and berths in compartments (which is more expensive).
We don’t have moving lady vendor but we have cafeteria cabin where you can buy some light snacks and coffee/drinks
Guess this was a short trip since long trip trains also have food cars.

One time i was in india with my family (i was a child, probably less than 9) and we took a train from one city to another that was multiple days ride. It was me, my older sister, our parents, and my dads parents. Since it was a multi day ride, we got a sleeper cabin with bunk beds. The way they worked was that there were two sets of 3 bunks each. The lower and upper ones were rigid and didnt move, while the middle bunks could hinge down to act as a backrest while sitting on the lower bunk. It was really cool and the only time in my life that ive taken a multi day train ride. Me and my sister were on the top bunks (obviously) and occasionally during the day we would climb up there and watch cartoons or draw and just hang out. It was really unique and really fun.
As a French person who's always been on trains with the exact same rules, I totally understand the stress of being far from your luggage x'D
I still keep it close to me even after being in Europe for like 4 years now
Thaaaanks I was afraid of being the only paranoid one in our trains 😂

Which is funny because America was once known for our railways.
😅We do. But if you plan to use them if you ever travel Germany, do not expect them to be on time. That is past. It is more like a never ending lesson in nihilism and frustration tolerance.

Some ICE trains in Germany do have an onboard restaurant where you can purchase snacks and drinks along your journey. It's like a separate wagon. But you have to go there yourself, they won't serve you at your seat.
Trains that travel more regionally/ shorter distances mostly don't offer any snacks or drinks. So you'd either bring your own stuff or get something out of a shop at the train stations before, along or after your journey.

I always try to sit as close as possible so I can watch it or I literally get up every 10 minutes and act like I need to take something out of it to check if it's still there. One time a person literally moved my luggage for no reason and I couldn't find it anymore. Found it after five minutes, I panicked so hard. I hate this.
Ahhh! This was me and my mom a few months ago on our first trip to Europe (we were born in South America). I had the same questions 😂 and I would check our bags every other big stop 😅
As someone else has suggested here: buy a bikelock and use it to lock your baggage to the rack
The Americans are all like "you guys have trains for people?" 🤣
I'm Italian and I am the same with the luggage. Super worried if I don't see it and check it every 5 minutes
If I were going on a 10-hour train ride I would definitely bring food.
I always feel like I need my bag right with me on a bus/train. I don’t even trust the seat next to me! That’s mostly because i started doing it to avoid forgetting it
As a Brit who did a German exchange I can confirm that the levels of trust are so much higher, I didnt leave my stuff on the train away from me or anywhere else (cuz as a Brit thats like asking for it to be stolen) but there was a day on the beach and we literally just left our stuff and went off swimming. No stealing. Felt weird.
As an Indian living in France I can relate to this 😂 It's the same in France.
This part about compatibility and common interests is key!! The way the media will glorify “odd couple” tropes like “the valedictorian and the jock” is super harmful. I think we don’t place enough emphasis on hobbies and passions; the way we spend our free time says so much about what we value. I am dating someone with whom I share many common interests for the first time, and hanging out is so fun.
In my country if you are not careful, you will be stolen... So I understand the anxiety of checking and rechecking if the luggage is not stolen 😂
In Germany I always make sure to reserve a seat from which I can see the luggage or I put it over my head if it’s light enough.
In Korea I learned to not care at all. People will leave all their bags and everything at their seat when they go to toilet or something. Even their laptops and phones and purses. Took me a while to develop that kind of trust haha
“No one will steal it.”
Person: *steals luggage*
Germany: “wait…that’s illegal.”
You mean "an immigrant steals luggage"
Anyway, that statement is so untrue for ages. Feel kind of a bad advise for anyone visiting Europe now
Meanwhile in SG: The only train we have is the MRT and LRT and it's public transport within a tiny island country so u carry all your belongings with you. Also no eating and drinking. Not even plain water (i think, but no one dares to try anyway). At least the trips are really short, unless you change lines a lot.
The true mark of an international traveler is how many people can relate to her situation.
As someone from the US, I love German trains.
As a Romanian who grew up in the 90s and 00s, I wholeheartedly can remember parts of my childhood by watching this.
Can you ask your people to stop begging and harassing old people in Scotland.
@@georgeriddell9356 Or you can demand your politicians to issue laws to prevent gypsy ethnics to travel to your country. On a side note, romanians can’t control gypsies ways of living, unfortunately.
She is hilarious. The hubby is sweet to her.
The bus beds were super-comfy in Vietnam, even though I was too big for it 😅
Us Indians are like this only 😂
As a French, you guys are always welcomed in my country !
You’re getting really good at this!:)
We here in the USA are so envious 😢
This is the standard in most of Central, Northern, and Western Europe.
I always put my luggage below my seat I don't trust strangers.
As a canadian currently visiting Europe, i felt the last one
