Founded in 963, Luxembourg became a grand duchy in 1815 and an independent state under the Netherlands. It lost more than half of its territory to Belgium in 1839, but gained a larger measure of autonomy. Full independence was attained in 1867. Overrun by Germany in both World Wars, it ended its neutrality in 1948 when it entered into the Benelux Customs Union and when it joined NATO the following year. In 1957, Luxembourg became one of the six founding countries of the European Economic Community (later the European Union), and in 1999 it joined the euro currency area. To be updated

Hoppin' a train to Luxembourg City Europe » Luxembourg » Luxembourg City

Bikes on the Train

We arrived in Maastricht quite exhausted from our 65 mile goose chase for a place to sleep. We wolfed down our dinner at the Youth hostel buffet and although it was a bit humiliating, but we just couldn't slow down until we were uncomfortably full. That night we talked about how most of our day was spent cycling in order to stay on schedule. You see, we didn't have a really accurate map when we were planning our itinerary and we seem to have significantly underestimated all of our daily mileages. It was cheaper to buy our maps in Europe. However, [View Full Entry]

Back in Europe again Europe » Luxembourg

After an exhausting journey, I landed in Düsseldorf at 11.20 am today. Exhausting as I left Dakar at 10.55 pm and couldn't sleep the whole night. I landed in Madrid at 5 am local time, which means 3 am Dakar, had to wait 4 hours and then get into the plane again. But well, no drama, I arrived at time, my luggage was there too and now I'm in Luxembourg. Probably Ill stay here for one week before going back to the Netherlands. Quite strange feeling now. I had some intense last "good-bye-days" in Senegal, spending time at my family there [View Full Entry]

4-9 September - Luxembourg Europe » Luxembourg » Vianden

Vianden
Vianden and the Our River from near the campsite

From Heli’s place we drove back up towards Salzburg then turned left into Germany, unfortunately we did not fill up before crossing the border because petrol was 10c dearer here. Our route was to take us all the way along the A8 through Munich, past Stuttgart and through Karlsruhe along the southern part of Germany and into The Grand Duchy of Luxembourg. The traffic on the autobahn was quite heavy and the number of trucks was incredible. Dobby cruised along at a steady 110 quite happily passing the trucks, and it was impossible for anyone to do more than around 130 [View Full Entry]

First train of the journey Europe » Luxembourg » Diekirch

Day 3 ends with us leaving Ciney (finally) and getting our first train of the trip. Really tired at this point as i didn't sleep the first night and the second night was spent in the car...on a main road. So all i remember looking back was it was a double decker train...my first one!!! I guess its like a normal train, but with another level. The journey to Luxembourg was short and pleasant and we decide to stay in a hostel (my first ever hostel) in Diekirch - part of the OLd Town of Luxembourg City. I think i was [View Full Entry]

Ferrari

Greetings all, from Luxembourg. There is not much to report about today as we didn’t really do much except travel on Autobahns all day from Ulm in Germany to Luxembourg in Luxembourg. I saw a Ferrari on the way and thought I’ll take a photo of that and put that on the blog to keep the masses around the world unfortunate enough to subscribe happy!! Other than that I didn’t take any photos because the autobahn is not that interesting. Over and out. [View Full Entry]

Luxembourg Europe » Luxembourg » Luxembourg City

With bags packed, rooms empty, and very few people left in Haus Erasmus, it was a very strange feeling on July 1st. Knowing it was all over and we were just hours away from leaving our most loved city left an empty feeling. Last goodbyes and a last kebab were in order as James and I made our way to Westbahnhof to begin a whole new adventure. This was the start of my Eurotrip but the last of my time in Europe. We were about to embark on a monster train journey to of all places …Luxembourg! The first of our [View Full Entry]
