What is tagskryt, the Scandinavian sustainable travel trend?
We’ve already talked about flygskam and the no-fly movement in the past. Today, let’s discuss the shift towards train travel which has come about as a result, and the pride which people take in it! In Sweden, they even came up with a name for it, which is tagskryt, and translates as “triain bragging”!
The train has always been the preferred mode of transport for some people. Let’s face it; it’s easy to sit back comfortably, read a book, work or simply stare out of the window at the countryside sights going by. For others, switching to the train has been an enforced change of habit, brought on by realising what a negative impact flying has on the planet.
Another Scandinavian buzzword, huh! Is it really worth bragging about it on social media? Is flying really that much worse than taking the train? In under 3 minutes, we answer your questions !
