Countries through their arrival points
These are planning portraits, not route, stop, fare, availability, or local-service promises. Check current official operator and municipal information before travel. Each note asks how an intercity arrival becomes an understandable city: a named stop, an address, a local transit choice, weather, documents, and a calm first hour.

Make an arrival card
For every destination, write the exact current intercity stop, country, accommodation address, daytime local option, late-arrival option, document reminder, layer for the weather, and one nearby place to pause. This modest card is more useful than memorising a whole network because it meets you after a long ride, in a new city, with a bag and a next step.
