hidden europe

We are aware that there is a growing public appetite for online access to articles and information. And we want to respond to that demand.

In mid-January 2010 we started making much more hidden europe content available online. This means that while the magazine continues to be printed, the full text of back issues can be accessed on our website. It is of course still possible to buy the actual printed copies of all back issues of hidden europe which might especially appeal to people who are looking for an unusual gift for friends or colleagues.

In a first stage, we shall open access to the full-length texts for subscribers to the magazine only. Access to those online texts will of course be free (and part of the regular annual subscription). Detailed information about this will be mailed to subscribers with issue no. 30 in mid-March. If you are an existing subscriber and would like to create a membership account now, feel free to register an account on our website. To see which articles are already available in their full-length version and to keep track of newly uploaded material please check here.

Within the next months, we shall also sell access to full-length texts to non-subscribers for a fee. We shall publish further information on that option in due course on this page.

Since this is new territory for us, we would really appreciate any feedback on the user friendliness of the member account or hear about technical glitches and ways of improving the service.

Any further questions? This document might help.

Enjoy browsing our website.

Diverted via Paris

Remember the ash cloud in 2010? It had a silver lining in making stranded travellers think creatively about the journeys they wanted or needed to make. And similarly with the seasonal doses of wintry weather that play havoc with rail schedules across the continent. When we left London mid-morning yesterday, we thought we were pretty sure to arrive in Berlin by late evening. Little did we imagine that our roundabout journey would lead us to Paris (just in time for an early supper by the Gare de l'Est), nor could we foresee to be many hours later on a train full of skiers returning from the Swiss Alps to Hamburg and later breakfasting in the company of wild deer in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern.

Across the Dardanelles

Çanakkale is a mere dot on the map, but mere dots in distant lands so often turn out to be bustling cities. And thus it is with Çanakkale, a seaport and fortress town on the east side of the Dardanelles. Çanakkale is a community of more than 100,000 people. Choose your vantage point on the waterfront with care, and you will be rewarded with fine views across the water to the great fortress at Kilitbahir across the west side of the Dardanelles.

Frisian waves

We map our way around Europe using antique guidebooks, just as we map our way through the year using long-obsolete ecclesiastical calendars. So we are in a small minority of Europeans who happen to know that today, 16 January, was long observed as the Feast of St Marcellus. Quite what happened to St Marcellus we don't know, but it seems he was ousted from his January perch by this or that papal reform sometime in the last century.
