Swansea

Beautiful City. It has everything a city should have, well planned. Good places to eat, tourist spots and especially beaches. Go explore.

As train stations go Swansea is pretty good I had a digital ticket which worked first time already better than southern who haven't yet discovered the digital ticket. The platforms were clearly labelled. I had forgotten the announcements would also be in Welsh so was a little confused to start but once I remembered where I was it was all fine. My train ran to time and got me where I needed to be.

Going here for the first time made me nervous, it was my first time getting on a train. I was surprised by how easy it was to buy a ticket at the ticket booth. They ask you where you want to go?, 1 way or 2 way? And then you're good to go. The ticket and the e-ticket tell you where to go (which platform to stand on). The train is extremely busy on a Friday but very quiet on a weekend, when it's busy don't expect to find any empty seats because the last few times I went in the train I had to stand for 40 minutes 😂 although on the weekend the train is usually empty. The train ride is very nice because you get to see a lot of cool views on your way to your destination (depending on what time you go because of the fog). There are usb s and UK wall plugs in the train so you can charge your phone or laptop.

Beautiful beaches lots of entertainment with the grand theatre new arena and patti pavilion. Wind st has been improved and is a lovely place to stop for lunch with a good variety of eateries

Love looking around the shops and indoor markets, plenty of places to eat and drink. Many hotels to stay in fantastic place for a party.
