All aboard! We love trains here at The Europeans, but your ability to get around the continent by rail depends a lot on where you live. This week we're chatting to Italian data journalist Lorenzo Ferrari about why Vienna has a ton of international train connections and Albania has... zero. We're also talking about Kosovo's super-popular new female president, the Netherlands' less-popular PM, and a Swiss underwear controversy.

You can check out Lorenzo's investigation into the state of international rail in Europe here.

This week's Isolation Inspiration: Are We Europe's new magazine and West Cork.
