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).

26 Hours In Stockholm ft. Best Swedish Pastries, Djurgarden and Street Food Hall.
Переглядів 14 тис.Рік тому
We've spent an amazing 26 hours in Stockholm and we loved every minute of it. We started with Fika in the place that is run by Sweden's only world champion baker (and the pastries were to die for) then we jumped on a boat which offered gorgeous views on Gamla Stan from the water. We spent a couple of hours admiring the Stockholm's bay area and green parks at Djurgarden and finished our day at a...

    I get it, UA-cam video making can be a grind, the constant editing, planning and travel and fingers crossed a video idea works well enough and gets lots of views and likes, but I do miss y’all’s amazing videos and chemistry, you two are always a pleasure to watch. I’m sure things are fine and life gets busy for sure, but if I ever see a new Polly video it’ll bring a big, happy smile to my face and warm my soul. No matter what tho, I hope you are enjoying your lives and embracing all the good things to see and do in this beautiful world of ours. It’s been over a year now, and I don’t mean “where is the next video” but think of it this way: your videos have impacted me in such a way that even over a year later I’m still thinking about you guys.

    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.

    I recently moved from Sony with the NEX7to Fuji. I had the old X-T1 but just used it with older manual primes at that time, I de ided on a newer body and bought the X-T30 ii to complement the old but still great X-T1 my first fuji oens mainly for versatility was the XF 18-135 whi h for me was a great starter lens. I then bought a used XF10-24MMF4 and I am now on the lookout for a longer zoom my ideal was the XF 70-300 but that is close to new price even used and for almost the same price I can get a XF 100-400 but that will be a later purchase for jow. So my dilema is XF 50-200 or the mark 2 XC 50-230 a bit more reach at less than half the price and the reviews seem very favourable and I ould get a non Fuji prime as well, or keep the extra and keep saving for the XF 100-400 ? There are some great pretty cheap 3rd party primes available these days for Fuji well great in thzt not seen any really bad re iews and eevn with the few niggles these lenses have are still very close to original Fuji glass at well under half the price. Just wish Fuji would get a grip on produ tion/suppy/shipping issues and a budget model like a new A series would be welcome as well.

It is so insane as to be indescribable. You did not mention Leonardo's Iron Horse replica. It isn't too far out and is worth a look. You also didn't mention La Scala Opera House. It's the most famous opera house in the world and a bucket list item for anyone who even likes opera a little bit. Keep up the good work. You have a great personality for this type of travel video.
