Yes, travel with me from London to Paris on an underwater train.
Firstly, you come to St. Pancras International Station — it's a very beautiful station in London. Then you go through security checks and even two passport controls at a time: the UK border and the French border. Yes, you do the French border while you're still in London.
Security control took around 10 minutes. Then you wait a bit in the waiting area, grab a snack, and start boarding 20 minutes before the departure. The navigation on the platform is very nice, and the train itself is very convenient, beautiful, and quite clean.
You take your seat, connect to Wi-Fi — there are sockets there — and you can even work from that train. The facilities are nice. There is a café and a lot of information about the train.
Halfway through, you go underwater — 100 meters below sea level. This is how it looks like: total black in a tunnel. Nothing extraordinary actually, but very exciting.
When you go out of the tunnel, this is what you see: hi France!
You arrive in the city center of Paris, and the whole journey takes you just 3 hours and £35 one way.
Have you ever traveled like that?
