The route was long and boring, so a cabin upgrade just had to happen! But was it worth the money? Join me on this Baltic adventure to find out!

I don’t pretend to be a travel expert, but I love what I do and would be honoured if you came along with me. My channel focusses on the wide-eyed wonder and excitement of finding somewhere new, and my genuine reaction to it. You may not get a history lesson in my videos, but who knows, you might pick up some useful travel tips along the way, add a few destinations to your bucket list and hopefully be entertained by what you see. Thanks for watching, it means a lot to me :)
I do ALL of this myself. Planning, filming, editing, promoting, all with a weekly upload schedule, so please understand not every video will be an epic adventure. But my pledge is to always do my best in any situation and KEEP THE CAMERA ROLLING :)

FAQs:
WHERE ARE YOU FROM?
I was born in Glasgow but have lived in Carnoustie, Dalgety Bay, Stonehaven, Edinburgh, Montrose, and further afield (Salamanca, Spain & Devonport, New Zealand)
WHEN DO YOU UPLOAD?
Saturdays at 10am Scottish time. Occasionally a bonus midweek video will pop up.
WHAT EQUIPMENT DO YOU USE?
I film with a GoPro11 and my iPhone12. I edit on iMovie and use epidemicsound.com for music. I also use canva.com for thumbnails etc.
WHY DON'T YOU SPEND LONGER AT DESTINATIONS?
The usual suspects I'm afraid - time and money! Hotels especially these days make my eyes water like a true Scotsman.
WHERE'S ALICJA?
Alicja will feature whenever possible, but she has her own life and a proper job so it can take a while for our schedules to match up. Trust me though, I prefer it when She is there too!
DO YOU PAY FOR YOUR OWN TRAVEL?
Yes I do. I've only ever accepted a complementary ticket as compensation for a previous problem. All my opinions are frank and honest reflections of travel as I experience it.
WHY THE ADS?
It's my income, I can't do this for free.
CAN I CONTACT YOU?
I used to list my email address but felt bad not having the capacity to respond to everything so took it down (and I got a LOT of spam so missed many genuine messages along the way).
HOW CAN I SUPPORT THE CHANNEL?
Watching my videos is of course support enough, but if you'd like to support further, I'll pop links below for Paypal and Patreon. All kind donations are super-appreciated and will go 100% towards future filming trips.
DO YOU ACCEPT SPONSORSHIPS?
I don't like to upset the flow of my videos, so I don't even include mid-roll ads anymore (at significant loss of income to myself), so I prefer not to include sponsorships either. I'm open to a small slide at the start/end of each video, but I don't want to get into talking about products, it's something I don't like as a viewer myself (especially as a viewer who pays for KZfaq Premium). So it's probably a polite no, although all of this goes out the window if you offer me something which can give me the chance to make a video for my audience that would otherwise be impossible.

@@JR-nv4td Its been my experience when you FLY you get there and back home quicker, and thus spend more days and nights at an expensive hotel. Every night on a train or ship is one LESS night at an expensive hotel. Considering both trains and ships provide transportation as well as a bed for the night, usually with food included, by the time you consider all of the costs, flying doesn't necessarily win...

We took this route with a doggo a few years ago and this route was very dog friendly! We were able to walk about with the dog all over the ship and all the staff were happy to see us. While the route between Nethetlands and UK is advertised much more as a 'pet friendly' route, but we were locked in a tiny area and not free to walk about at all 😅

They now have dog friendly cabins on the Harwich Hook of Holland route. Before that using the kennels was required. The outdoor walking space for dogs is limited. We have the same kennel at home as Stena used. Our Malinois broke it and bent the door. No idea about the IJmuiden to Newcastle route. I certainly want to ferry again to the UK but for fun, not for work.

The cabin seemed well worth the money, especially with the meal ticket as well. When you factor in travel, either air or rail, hotel and meals it's a pretty decent deal, if you accept it's an A to B fprm of transport. If you were travelling as a 'normal' traveller rather than a guide / presenter (not a criticism btw) you could have a chill out day, very relaxing. Hope you both have a nice Christmas.

193 GBP (€222) sounds like a steep price, but this is a pretty long trip and the accommodation looks like an equivalent of a top 1st or business class on a train which would probably cost an equivalent high amount of money for a comparable long service. Also, for some reason I see this cabin advertised for €300 Eur one way, so you definitely got a bargain price.

Hi Steve, I've not seen your previous escapades but will watch them another time. I expect that journey would be better in warmer months when you can sit outside. Merry Christmas to you and your family

This was such an interesting stream Steve I enjoyed it very much, thank you. My favourite ferries with the tour coach were North Link to Orkney and Shetland with overnights and meals onboard, having now retired I do miss those a lot. All the best to you and Alicja for the coming season.

DFDS have some pretty good looking ships and services. They're one of the largest Danish ship companies, and used to have routes to North and South America.

Just love one of your fantastic ferry videos. Talking of delays leaving ferries on the last Newcastle to Amsterdam ferry the car deck where we were were delayed for what seemed for hours as one of the antique Volvo cars which seemed to be part of a group had broke down and persumably had to be pushed off
