I know the "how is this my life?" at the start was probably a throwaway comment, but I have an answer... because you've bloody grafted incredibly hard for years! You have the dream job and you absolutely deserve it!
Im so glad you're doing TH-cam again. I can definitely grasp things better when they're in longhand. Thank you, that's a train journey that is definitely on the list to do now.
Lovely positive review CHE! Great to see long form content again. Plenty of space for one, but I imagine it would be very intimate with 2 other people 😅
I’m actually planning to this route in the next few months, after buying an interrail pass while it was on sale (thanks to your heads up! 🙌🏼) Buzzing that you’ve released this, will definitely look into a private compartment. Also good to know that there’s still lots of snow in March ☃️
Loved this video! So great you got a private cabin, looked soo cosy. I just got the Santa Claus Express Helsinki to Rovaniemi, but decided to go budget and book a "private seated compartment" instead of a sleeper. Wouldn't recommend 😂 the train was awesome though and I'd have loved it in a sleeper! Northern Europe in winter is so magic 😍
Really enjoyed this. Sweden is a wonderful place to explore. Nattåget Norrland for £64 is a bargain. When I was a wild feral youth, a seat or couchette would've been fine, but am old now and need every bit of comfort I can afford.
I won't lie, I absolutely loved the couchette and the community it builds for your trip if you're on your own! The women in mine ended up being in the same hostel and we hung out for the next couple of days. Would deffo be my preference travelling there again!
Lovely to see these longer form videos again, much like the original how many holidays series (you should try it again) great to see how far youve come since then too!
Nice video! It will be the same trains and roughly the same price levels with SJ as the operator 😊. The night train route Stockholm - Luleå/Narvik is procured by the swedish state and the locos and wagons used in the trains are rented to the operator from the Swedish Transport Administration
Thank you for the info!! I thought they would be the same trains too but when I checked SJ, they offered no seat options across the many, many dates I checked and so it really confused me... Especially as I've been on an SJ overnight train that was just that - no seats but couchettes and private compartments!! Here's hoping there's no big change as it was a lovely train!
As an old fart im sat here with two kids crawling over me issuing demands. I always say to young people before you do anything stupid like settling down and having kids go travelling. See the world. It will make you a better person and you'll never regret it. Great video as always.
The trip was last year but the prices are all current and the experience isn’t dated - well, until they CHANGED THE BLOODY OPERATOR 😆 maybe I need to go back and try to the SJ route now!!!
Don't give up your day job, to be a professional thrower of gloves at cameras! Disappointed that even though there were toilets reviewed, there were no shitters!

Amen! Totally agree, Chelsea has worked so hard to get here.
Thank you so much Gary!!! I'm very lucky! ❤

I totally agree - not sure I could do it with 2 strangers!!!

So chuffed you’re back on TH-cam! Loving the videos ☺️
I'm chuffed to be back!!
16 hours alone on a train is the DREAM 😅
COULDN’T AGREE MORE 😂
Amazing video! Didn't know this was a thing, now I'm looking to book it. Cant wait for more videos in the future!
It's such an epic adventure!
You are smashing hilarious Chelsea 😂 laughed and got well informed 👌🏻
Keep the vids rolling girl 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
The perfect combo!!!
I. Love. Your. Videos. So glad you’re back on TH-cam. Thanks for the info and laughs!!
Ah thanks Maureen!!!!
Bloody brilliant! Love all the 'real life' bits of making a TH-cam video you included 😂
Ha ha - so much embarrassment in one video!
Nailed it Chelsea! 🎉
Perfect video to watch between Christmas and New Year making plans for the new year🤓
Oh yes it's a great winter trip to plan!!!
This looks incredible! Definitely one for the goals list.
Add it on!!
Great timing I was just looking at this trip!! Didn’t know about the Vy/SJ thing though!
Neither did I until yesterday 😆😆😆

We and my wife loving watching your videos so much Chelsea ❤ it’s so comforting. You haven’t changed since your forum days ❤
ZOE!!!!!! So lush to hear from you ❤️❤️❤️ literally just screenshotted your comment and sent to my family WhatsApp 😆
@ ❤️❤️❤️
I love watching your videos. Keep posting
Love watching your videos as always. Thanks ❤
Thank YOU for watching!
Love this!
Lovely to see these longer form videos again, much like the original how many holidays series (you should try it again) great to see how far youve come since then too!
It's so nice to be posting these again : ) And yes, we need to think of an updated version!!!
This just looked absolutely lovely!! I soooo badly want to try one of these overnight trains a some point 🚈
YOU HAVE TO! I love them.
I would love that. I might do the night train London-Edinburgh this summer.
Oooh I've only done the seat, would love to do a bed!
Really enjoyed watching all of this, thank you so much! I think I’d be too nervous of a couchette with strangers, what it I snored!!
Everyone should know to bring ear buds for this sort of thing 😆
First video of yours i saw was the Christmas market tour 😂😂... this one popped up... howling all the way through 😂😂😂
Oh I do like it when the TH-cam algorithm works 😆
Great video. Although train toilets weird me out! 🤣❤️
They are so hit and miss.
Another great vid
Cheers pal!

Looks amazing. I'd love to do this
Put it on your bucket list!

Great video as always.
Not sure about the dodgy shower arrangements bbz. You love to give your old mother panic attacks! 😂
Turns out I'm just a div who doesn't understand locks
Only James gets to see your Jebs 😂😂😂😂
Wow!
Great video Chelsea! Can you put a note at the end with the date you travelled and other relevant info?
The trip was last year but the prices are all current and the experience isn’t dated - well, until they CHANGED THE BLOODY OPERATOR 😆 maybe I need to go back and try to the SJ route now!!!
@ and you think it’s just the UK that change operators on lines and confuse us all!
@@racheltelfer6390 Hahaha
Deffo alone with my snoring 😂
Where did you get the key card for the room? Does someone meet you on board?
No one met me - it was open when I arrived and then magically locked once I got the key card from inside the room 😂
OMG That is very extreme way to avoid your flatmate!
I will do anything it takes.
Seat. I am frugal.!
I did the seat on the train to Edinburgh, but that was a lot shorter than this!
Don't give up your day job, to be a professional thrower of gloves at cameras!
Disappointed that even though there were toilets reviewed, there were no shitters!
Great video makes me want to go
YOU HAD ME IN THE FIRST HALF PHIL 😆 And yeh, need to go back and just do a 45 min vid on shitters only.
