  • We got up at 4 AM on a very windy and cold November morning to take the ferry from Tallinn, Estonia to Helsinki, Finland. It's about a 2 hour ride and things definitely got bumpy, but we arrived safely in Helsinki and even did a little exploring.
    Traveling to Helsinki in November is definitely chilly, but we're still glad we got to explore this beautiful Scandinavian city. Make sure you subscribe for our next video where we'll be traveling to Bangkok!
    Thanks so much for watching! Don’t forget to like and subscribe :)

    Tallinn-Helsinki is a busy sea route, a lot of commuting passengers. The biggest ferries sail between Helsinki and Stockholm. No wonder you found a good flight deal from Helsinki to Bangkok, Finns like to escape the winter to Thailand, a lot of choices from Helsinki to Asia.

      No. Europa is the biggest. Tallinn-Helsinki. Still one of the biggest ferries in the world.

    We have a saying Estonia(probably Finland too.. im both so.. 😊) which goes "There is no bad weather, only bad clothing" 😂 but i understand why you didnt buy stuff especially just having a short time in this cold. To be honest it is a hard time having the waves while on the ferry. I get seasick at that point. I manage but it is quite hard. After the biggest maritime disaster in modern times involving civillians with MS Estonia going from Tallinn to Stockholm(1994) they have more secure ferrys. Hundreds died. Some survived. So even in thesewaves they will go for overnight trips in the Baltic sea. I'm happy you got the nice experience at the end too. Cool vlogs btw. You just have to manage 😊 Interesting theory on raisins.. 😂 I like it but they are sometimes necessary(like making home made cider) so there is that 😂😂😂

    That first cup of coffee is like 1,5 times more expensive than in other places even in the city centre :o At that time of the morning you'll get a full-sized latte for less than 3 euros in most places. Except for Starbucks, ofc :D

    Jack and Gab, it is another lovely video! It is just the right time that you are going to Bangkok. The Indo-northern monsoon ended in in October, not much rain, but it rains occasionally. The northern wind is blowing from the North which brings some cool and pleasant weather into the area from November to the end of January. It is also the rice harvesting season. You will see the golden rice fields. Since you will be in the area you should visit Siem Reap, Cambodia. Bon voyage!
