2017-06 Estonia

A couple of hours of ferry ride took me from Scandinavia to the Baltics, where the cost of travel is about 3 times lower. Smaller country size and more day-trip possibilities.

Estonian Open Air Museum, a life-sized reconstruction of an 18th-century rural fishing village. Lesson learned from visiting the open air museum in Ukraine, grabbing a bike is always the way to go to save myself miles of walking.

Lahemaa National Park.

Visiting Lahemaa National Park is quite difficult using public transportation. I ended up joining a local tour with two girls from Germany. Our tour guide is originally from Italy. He moved to Estonia years ago and has an Estonian girlfriend.

Open-water diver / hostel roommate from Hong Kong. Will probably meet up again in Egypt in late July. If I end up getting open-water certified while in Egypt it would be because of her influence.
