15x My favorite things to do in Tallinn in Winter
A few minutes before arriving in Tallinn, the pilot informs us about the weather. Cloudy, windy, and snowy. Not what I would typically call holiday weather. But I decided to visit Tallinn in winter because of the snow, so this announcement actually makes me smile. And...
15x My favorite things to do in Tallinn in Winter
A few minutes before arriving in Tallinn, the pilot informs us about the weather. Cloudy, windy, and snowy. Not what I would typically call holiday weather.

Lily Vanilli: Sweet Tooth Sunday
Lily Vanilli is not your ordinary bakery. First, it's only open on Sundays. Second, celebrities and big brands love her. And when I asked the guy behind the counter which cake he recommended, he asked me if I liked beetroot and courgette. We're talking cakes here,...
RadLab: My secret photo editing weapon
I'm gonna let you in on a little secret. Just between us, okay? The way my photos look on this blog... is not the same as how they look right after taking them. Yeah, I know...I'll give you a second to process. When you start to become more serious about your...
