Hello!
I´m writing this in the middle of the night, since my sleeping pattern is totally messed up!
But I have a new trip booked!
I will be going to Italy at the beginning of September! Genoa Italy to be exact, for about 8 days.
I had over a week off, which is why I will travel to Italy. But why Italy? It´s been a while since I have been to Italy and I haven´t been to Genoa before. I have heard good things about it and it will be interesting to be there!
Sadly I won´t be going back to school this fall/autumn since I failed my practical internship twice, I´m not allowed to go back!
But it gives me time and resources to travel more!

Hello everybody! I´m home again!
The Day started early, with me writing the last post. I packed the rest of my stuff and headed to the airport with taxi at 7am. Which was too early as the check in hasn´t even opened yet! So I waited and waited, and it finally opened at 9.10.
I checked in and went through security just fine! I had some time spend to spend here as well, and bought some water amongst other stuff!
The flight lifted as usual and I had some lunch in Helsinki Airport. I walked around the duty free and bought something for myself. I chilled for a bit until my flight!

Rainy Last day and on my way home!

Good morning!
I´m writing this the next day, the day i´m heading home!
Yesterday started with a chill, since I had some trouble sleeping. I chilled in bed until 12, since I I wanted to do something, and not chill in bed.
I also wanted to wait out the rain, as it rained all morning.
So at 12 the rain stopped and I went out to other parts of the docks, and walked back outside of the old town walls. I decided to have some late lunch and had a huge one at McDs, which i´m not proud of!
After the lunch I headed back and chilled at the hostel. I did take a nap as well.
After the nap I talked with my roommates for a bit and decided to go play some pool and hanged out during the evening, was a good day!
Today I will be heading back to Sweden, and my flight will leave for Helsinki at 11.10.
What do I think of Tallinn?
It is a nice city, with a lot of culture and good food. 4 days might be too much though, as I thought I saw the most of the city at the last day. It might be a good idea to go out to some different islands that exists here. Maybe next time!
The Hostel (United backpackers Hostel) is functional, I had some good nights here.
I will probably go back to Tallinn some day!

A Chill Day!

Hello Everybody!
Today was a chill day! Woke up at 7am and chilled for a bit, and took a nap. I woke up again at 11. I chilled some before deciding on where to go.
I decided to go to Kadrioru park, which was quite a walk to. It took about 30min to get there by foot, when I got there, it was worth it. It was an awesome park with an art museum. I didn´t go inside the museum though. I walked around and taking it all in.
From there I walked down to Kadrioru Stadium, which was an ordinary stadium.
I decided to head back, and saw a cigar shop, which I went in and bought some for myself. I then chilled at the hostel for a bit, and then decided to go out and explore the old town some more. I saw some things I haven´t seen before. I also heard some history about Tallinn as well.
I also had some dinner, having some chicken wraps, which were good. I headed back to the hostel and has chilled since.

Hello everybody!
It has been a chill day, I woke up around 9am and chilled on the computer for a bit. After a while I decided to go out and head south, down to the Kalevi central Stadium to be exact. It took a while but I got there. But when i got there, I couldn´t find a place to go inside, so I left!
I went northeast, to Politseiaia park, and on the way I had some lunch. I then headed to Tammsaare Park and had a look. I then headed back to the hostel and chilled for a bit. After a while, I remembered a place that had something I wanted to buy, so looked it up and found the place.
I went back to the hostel and chilled some more, then I decided to head out again, to the Old Town. I walked around for a bit, and decided to have some dinner at a restaurant, in which I tried some Wild Boar, which was decent. After dinner, I walked around some more and decided to head back to the hostel.
Let´s see what tomorrow has in store!

Hello Everybody!
I will start by writing what I did last night! I decided to go out and have a look. I went around the old town and saw amazing things like Aleksander Nevski Cathedral and Tallin Town Hall. It was Very interesting to see!
Today, after a decent sleep, I had a walk to the docks, north of old town. I saw that some ships from Helsinki and Stockholm had arrived. The Docks had some decent views, and I think I could see a part of Finland in the distance.
I did walk and see Memorial of the Departed, which was a museum that old the story about what USSR did with the Estonian people during the second world war, which was interesting.
After the museum I decided to go back to the hostel

Arriving in Tallinn!

Hello Everybody!
I have arrived in Tallinn now! The day started with a graveyard shift, from 9pm to 7am, and having a flight to Helsinki at 12.
I tried to stay up after work, but I took an hour nap, which didn´t help that much. My dad and brother picked me up at 10am.
When I arrived at the airport, I checked in my bag, and talked to my dad and brother for a bit. Eventually, I went through Security and flight lifted at normal time, and during the flight I took a nap. I had some hours to kill in Helsinki, so I had a look around, in the Duty free. I didn´t buy anything, but I took notes about what eventually to buy when I get back.
The flight to Tallinn lifted at 5.25pm, and was a little late to Tallinn. I got my bag quite quickly and I took the tram to the centre of town, and had a walk to the hostel. it was realtively hard to find, but I did find it, and checked in.
I made myself comfortable, and will see if I will go out tonight!
