Eastern Europe is very affordable

Pictured is one of the many roof tops of the old town along the city wall in Tallinn, Estonia. This medieval Baltic city is by some accounts the best preserved walled city of northern Europe.

Future posts here will include travel tips such as economic ways to fly to Estonia, ideas for bucket list visits to other European destinations and when to start booking flighs. (tip: not before next spring).
