6 Things To Know About the Old Town of Tallinn, Estonia | Travel Guide 2023
Today I'll share my favourite 6 things to see and do in the Old Town of Tallinn. I sit down with Cedrick to learn more about the beginnings of the medieval Tallinn and how the Hanseatic League has transformed this city, which is going to be dope. I also share with you 5 activities that you can do in the Old Town that are super fun.
This is a very special episode. Tallinn is my hometown and after about 13 episodes that I've shot in collaboration with the local tourist group, I've gathered tons of material and met awesome people who are as passionate about Tallinn as I am. I hope you will fall in love with this city as much as I have.
Can't recommend enough joining the Tales of Reval medieval tour in the Old Town (It's free and it's super fun).

We spent a couple of hours admiring the Stockholm's bay area and green parks at Djurgarden and finished our day at a...

    The nicest part of the trip to Saaremaa besides the ferry ride is the ride from Muhu to Saaremaa. The road is so low in the sea that you literally feel you are driving in the sea. The video made it look like you step from the ferry to Kuressaare but it is not the case. Still a long way to go from there. This is why I love the ride: so many different parts to it, it literally feels like going to another reality. i have not been there for a while. As soon as I get the chance, I will go.

    I’m born and raised in Milan, as experienced traveller I kindly suggest to not consider July and August to visit Milan it could be extremely hot there transforming your trip in a nightmare! The best periods to visit the city are definitely October march April and may. Also other autumn and winter months are not bad if you are not afraid of a little bit of cold (not so much anymore).

Re Estonian design, there is actually a video we made about it on the Visit Tallinn YT channel, where I met some of my favourite current designers in Estonia. I would recommend to check out Reet Aus (she makes clothes out of leftover fabric that otherwise would be sitting in the landfill) and Stella Soomlais, her minimalistic looking leather bags are great and her approach to creating sustainable and long lasting fashion peaces is wonderful.

    Very much enjoyed this video, but PLEASE turn down the volume on your background music. I liked the use of the Dick Dale-ish guitar to punctuate and emphasize the drama. But the constant aimlessly noodling background music during your narration was irritating and extremely distracting! Otherwise, it was excellent and I will subscribe. I'd also like to add that these are the same two Fuji lenses that I choose to use the most. I love the full coverage from 18mm to 200mm. Plus they are relatively lightweight and compact (not to mention less expensive) that similar lenses with a larger aperture. Having said this, if I'm traveling as a tourist and only want one single lens to carry, then I also own the Fuji 18-135mm. This is a nice compact lens for the focal range and I consider it to be my Swiss Army lens. P.S. It's nice to see a cute girl with a bubbly creative personality reviewing camera equipment, as opposed to the usual sausage fest.
