Back from holidays :( always too short... But very happy about places we (my love Carlotta and I) saw.
This year we went for 10 days in Estonia, in north of Europe, very close and bottom Finland: here's a map, just to understand where Estonia really is, beginning from my home town, Italy :)

We stayed 3 days in Tallin, the capital, a medieval town, very nice and lovely to live in.

The Cathedral, with Russian influences, very impressive!

View from the high of a church is really amazing...

You can see also the sea, that is very close to the city, you can go in ten minutes by foot from the old town city.

And you find also wonderful beaches, like the Pirita's one, where the sea is really low for hundreds meters.

By the way the city is very nice and people friendly, there are many good points of view from high places (like from Toompea zone), but you can find nice places also in the town, just walking in old town.

Next times I will show other parts of our travel, because we take a car and went to Parnu, in south of Estonia, that our book guide describes it like Estonian Miami :D
Then we went on the biggest island of thousand of Estonian's Islands: Saarema, staying 3 days and then having a nice days in Haapsalu, first to come back again to Tallin, a day before to leave.

Hope you like it, will soon organize pics and wirte down the rest.
I'm here if you have any question.

Steem on!
