In Helsinki we took the ferry to cross the bay and get to the capital of Estonia, Tallinn. A astonishing old city center was already waiting for us, however we were much to early in the morning. As we got of the ferry around 7 am and started roaming the streets of this old Hanseatic City everyone was still fast asleep it seemed. The city however looked promising and I personally still want to go back to see the city’s life.

You all know Scandinavia or at least heard of it. However, what countries do actually belong to it? Some might consider Finland to be part of it. According to Wikipedia it’s not really clear and anyone who visited the country can understand why. Suomi, how it’s called in the local language and in the majority of the Baltic, does not really fit into the Scandinavian picture that’s painted by Sweden and Norway.

You guessed it probably already, the Lofoten were picturesque. The rocks, sea and little houses that a spread on the lush meadows In the midst of the mountains add to the atmosphere. Unfortunately, the weather was only mediocre. It was quite rainy, windy and cloudy. We camped on a ground directly at the beach and met with all the other teams to celebrate the midnight sun party. We had a BBQ and participated in the viking games.
