It sounds ideal.

I found your blog actually to thank you for your wonderful rendition of Heidi. Thank you so much!

You have a lovely reading voice and I am enjoying very much listening to a story that I didn’t get around to reading as a child. Some of the children’s books from past times are actually just as enjoyable for adults. Having found your blog I then had a look at earlier posts and you have now introduced me to Duolingo (now having a go at French) and also The History of English Podcast. So a triple thank you! I only discovered your readings last week and already you have expanded my listening and learning experience. Many thanks from somewhere cold and rainy in England.

THANK YOU for being a Librivox volunteer. I am a 39 year old truck driver who has a lot of time to listen. I loved listening to you read This ISland Of Ours and This Country Of Ours. My sixteen year old hostory loving daughter loves to listen to you read as she falls asleep. Thank you so much for your time.

Unfortunately traveling by train in Germany is a bit different because it is not that comfortable as you described it. There is only little room for all your stuff and you sit in two rows along the wagon. Not much privacy or quietness.
But… I dreamed such a long time of traveling by train through USA or Canada because of the wild and beautiful and breathtaking landscapes and views. And after your report I feel deeply attracted to it. I can imagine it so well, thank you so much! I hope that you will have lots and lots of road trips by train the next time.
Traveling is such fun, you meet people with interesting stories very often. And having that special connection with them while traveling together. It’s so touching and joyful.

Wish you plenty of time to discover whatever you want to see and experience. Blessings, Natalie
