A day in Estonia

Going to Estonia now and then has been a tradition since I was 12. The country back then was just ridden from teh Soviet Union and it was poor, very poor. Beggars and houses without any maintenance and so cheap. Now about 20 years later the country has become part of the EU, new high-risers have appeared and there are so much cool restaurants, design shops and buzz in the city. Also discovered my new favourite area just north-west of the old town. It's like a mini Berlin. So coming back here again! This was so far the best Tallinn trip I had! The new boats only take 2 hours and price something like 50 euro return.

New terminal is so nice! Good job Helsinki 
 Incoming 

 Set sails! Here we go :) 
Stopped by The Red Baron, a very differnt bar not far from the terminal. If you into underground places, this is your pitstop 


 The old town is always as beautiful, old Viru Gates from 700 years back 


 Views from on of the churches bell towers 

Visiting the local market 
 Trippy train graffiti inside 
 The crazy ice cream shop had the best ice cream I had this year so far
 Entering the little Berlin area called Telliskivi



 Old school gas pump! Where did they get this from??
 Container bars 
 Factory turned into restaurant 
 Some cool artists around this area 
 But first, let me take a selfie 
 This place! Must come again! F-Hoone
 Amazing food, atmosphere, people and place
 So cool! Old trains converted to a bar !! 
Inside the train 
 Doesen't get much more Berlin than this, club entrance 
 This hipster bike shop had cool colors
Berlin wall in Estonia 
Not feeling too good are you 
 Peace square
Game of throne music playing in the background. We took the last ferry back, all tourist gone by this time 
 Some strange finns driving around in this car full of Finnish flags in the back. What? 
If pyramid-head was a building 
 Good night Tallinn, was an amazing day 
Sailing back home 
There were 8 hotrod cars onboard to Finland, wonder what's on for the weekend in Helsinki
