Thomann, an inspiring business case for the books
One of the best perks of a road trip is choosing where and when to stop.And when you travel with pets, they get to enjoy the stop too. While crossing Germany, we made a detour to our favourite music shop. Not an ordinary one. It’s actually one of the best business stories I’ve come across […]
Is it easier to travel with cats than with dogs?
A colleague recently asked me if it’s easier to travel with cats than with dogs.It got me thinking, but my honest answer was… 🥁🥁🥁It depends. It’s very frustrating to experience firsthand that “Pet Friendly” is still very far from “pets” in general. Most pet travel policies (transport, accommodation, restaurants, places) are built around dogs as […]
European Roadtrip with pets
After two consecutive summers driving the same Helsinki – Barcelona route (and back) via Sweden, this time I wanted to test something different, trying a shorter route which happened to be even cheaper. Turns out the answer wasn’t Via Baltica through Poland. It was the opposite of what I expected: more time on a ferry […]
Crossing Europe with your pets
This is the third summer we’ve crossed Europe on a road trip with the whole fam, cats and dogs included. This time we came back with an addition.Meet Nord (North, in Catalan). 🥳 And after many adventures together, I can say that travelling with pets can teach you more than any guidebook ever could. → […]

3 Large dogs flying in cabin with their pet parents
Three Bernese Mountain dogs, flying with their family in the cabin.Totally chilling. And living rent free in their heads not knowing:🔸The 6 months of research, emails and phone calls.🔸The extra paperwork, health certificates and vet visits.🔸The fact that their tickets cost more than your first car.🔸The arguments about what is “small enough” for travelling like […]
That’s the whole difference between letting pets on board and designing around them
I’ve crossed Finland by train with two cats and a dog many times.Night trains, day trains, always welcome. Most countries are nowhere close. VR, the Finnish railway, lets you book seats in the pet wagon. Your dog, cat, parrot, hamsters, guinea pig, domestic rat, lizard or turtle travelling in their carriers can settle right next […]
AI translation as the main GTM strategy
It sounds crazy but this case is very real. You took the campaign that worked at home, translated it with AI, and it landed flat. The locals can tell. This is what translation can’t fix. AI translators swap your words. It does not swap the assumptions baked into them. The joke that works in Spain […]
Checking new vet clinic in petstore
I had to update Jazz’s vaccinations before we travel next month, so I went to try Musti ja Mirri’s new vet clinic, the one they’ve opened inside one of their stores. The location is actually pretty clever. It sits right next to an Evidensia vet hospital and Murren Murkina (still the best around for BARF […]
