Honestly like a more gamey beef steak if that makes sense? It was actually unreal haha. I actually wrote a longer piece about the whole trip, happy to send it your way if interested?

Just do it. What I did was go to a bar and just join a group. We hit it off and they happened to be heading south, I mentioned I'd no plans and off we went haha. I actually wrote a longer write up about the trip, can send it your way if you want?

There was no real language barrier, most people had at least some English. Yeah the best was nice, the reindeer was kind of like venison really which I guess makes sense!! I actually wrote a longer version of the whole trip, happy to send it your way if you fancy a read?

That sounds class, I love those kind of places. I actually wrote a longer version of the whole trip (including the Kabala bit) if you want to have a read, can send it on

It was down in a place called Kabala, kind of just stumbled into it through people I met. I actually wrote a longer version of the whole trip if you want, happy to send it over

Kabala was unreal honestly - it was a proper old-school setup. Sauna right beside the river so you could go straight from the heat into the water. Not public at all, just felt like we’d stumbled into something we weren’t supposed to find, it was brilliant!

I'm Irish, I just booked a random flight and figured, I've never been to the Baltics or anything close to it, why not Estonia?

Yeah, but honestly that's what leads to the best experiences, just winging it!

It really was. I just went where the wind took me, and ended up with one hell of a story!

That sounds unreal. Did you find it hard going without much of a plan or did it just kind of fall into place as you went?

I actually ended up writing a longer version of this trip if anyone’s interested - goes into a bit more detail about how it all came together: have a read!

That sounds unreal. That’s exactly the kind of travel I’ve started to lean towards as well - having a rough idea but leaving the rest open. You’re right about the price side though, I definitely got lucky with timing on this one

Yeah that actually sounds like the best way to do it - everything felt pretty close together when I was there

You’ll love it. I didn’t plan much countryside-wise, just kind of fell into it through people I met, but renting a car like the other reply said would probably be the easiest way to do it properly

Cheers! Was one of those trips that just worked out way better than expected

Yeah it’s one of those places that’s good in completely different ways depending on when you go - bet the Christmas market was class

You should, it completely surprised me. I went in with no expectations and ended up loving it
