Most of us rarely choose trains as a means of transportation for our travels, often preferring the privacy of a car or the convenience and speed of an airplane. But it does not always matter the destination but the journey.
Despite the fast pace of our lives nowadays and the stress of getting to our destinations very quickly, there is still something romantic and poetic about train travel.
So what if you could see the beauties and sights of dozens of countries on a 21-day journey of 18,755 kilometers? ‘Cause this is supposed to be the longest train journey in the world, from Portugal to Singapore.
The (hypothetical) route was calculated by train enthusiasts on Reddit with the help of railroad expert Mark Smith who maintains a website that provides tips for long journeys like this, the seat61.com.
