However I couldn't purchase the required ticket in Spain because it's a French train, and unfortunately the ticket office was closed when I arrived in Montpelier. Luckily the 4 French phrases I know were enough to get me to a nice hostel with an open bed. Actually, I think it turned out better anyway. I had a nice ...
