Flight free with
Late January - €132 for two people
(double bed cabin, not incl. bus transfers)

The waves were no issue when lying down in the cabin, which was very comfy! Shops onboard were bigger than Stena Line ferries, with ok cafes/bars

Very relaxing, good deal - except the bus transfers are expensive, and peak season sees fares soar!

Surprised how un-freezing it was on deck in the morning! But the was no joke

St Andrews graveyard, the Swing Bridge... Before heading to Durham for the castle/cathedral

After a night bus to Paris, I got on a TGV straight to the border town of Hendaye. from there, the Euskotren goes over the border, straight into downtown Donostia

What a wonderful place to be, lunch on the beach in the city centre, no flights required!

HELSINKI AND LAHTI ⛵🇫🇮🌇

Finland in the summer has long evening sun, manageable warm weather, great food, lakes... and you can get around really well by train within many parts of the country

Lahti is an easy day trip out from Helsinki, a town located at the lower end of one of Finland's largest lakes - and home to Teerenpeli Distillery

Here's what it's like to take the MS Viking Cinderella between Stockholm and Helsinki

- Pretty affordable if booked in advance, even for a single traveller 🧳
- A bar up on the top deck, with great views of Stockholm before you sail! 🌁

- The boat takes a while to work it's way out of the fjords to the open Baltic 🌊
- A quiet pub built in to have a drink 🍻
- Good shops for duty free ...

- Comfy rooms, and city center terminals - you can get off in Helsinki and straight on to a 🚊 though you're also well within walking distance of most things...

No flying required! The overnight boats from Stockholm to Helsinki are a fantastic way to go center to center, seeing two Nordic capitals without flying 🚢

Arriving off a TGV in Hendaye, I transferred to the for Donostia. What a lovely chance to dip my toes in the Atlantic! This was in September - if I have anything to say about it, it won't be my last time going to Euskadi :D

ANNUAL CO2 ROUNDUP - 2025

How well did I do this year in terms of avoiding flights? Overall, I did a lot of flying, but also a LOT of flight free travelling. Again, over half my total for the year came from one return flight to the US.

Beyond that, we're still looking at an overall increase, but a much lower one than the previous year. If we can keep things going in that direction, hopefully 2026 will be better. I might not fly transatlantic, and I might also have a bit more cash for flight free business travel.

Let's find out! I'm doing very well in daily life for minimising emissions - using my bike and the train, eating less meat - and I still avoided enormous amounts of potential emissions. My flight free carbon calculations are deliberately pessimistic, so what you see is the worst case scenario

I want to improve, but also be transparent - hope this inspires some of you to take more flight free options, and not to give up. Take what wins you can, and keep going! 👍
