Estonia is one of the most beautiful places you've visited as of now! I'm so stoked for the Asia trip. Can't wait to see your vlogs!!! Enjoy the chaos, the street vendors, and the unlimited bargaining😁 Happy Travels ✈️ ✈️ ✈️
There's a great pancake shop in the old city very next to the pathway upto the castle in the center and the government building (3:20) if you haven't been!
I really hope you didn't just go to the Old town in Tallinn, but also other places like Kalamaja, Telliskivi, Rotermanni, Kadriorg. Old Town is beautiful but there are much more to see in Tallinn. I'd also like to mention that Estonia is considered to be Northern Europe country (you mentioned in your video that it's Eastern Europe, which is part true but we'd like to be noticed as Northern).
"The United Nations has classified Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania as Northern European countries instead of Eastern European.* According to the United Nations, Northern European countries are Denmark, Estonia, Finland, Iceland, Ireland, Latvia, Lithuania, Norway, Sweden and the United Kingdom" I think people generally label the Baltics Eastern Europe because we fell under the soviet ocupation and these commies really tried making it look like "Easter Europe", but yeah officially its Northern Europe
I mean, guys, it is at least both east and north. Like, Estonia has the easternmost city of the EU. And usually by "north" people imagine Sweden, Norway, Iceland much more often. Not saying you are wrong, but there are strong reasons why people perceive you as East.
Loved your country! Visited 2 weeks ago. I visited Kadriorg (loved it!), Rotermanni also nice but my favourite place was the Balti Jaam Turg believe it or not, because I like to experience a city from the perspective of a local. My favourite city in Estonia was Tartu though, old and new feels a bit more integrated. Lahemaa NP was fantastic - spotted both a bear and a lynx. What a gem of a place.
Northern European winters are really cold for foreigners. I'm local and seeing you without a scarf made me cold 🙂 By the way Finland is more Eastern than Estonia and we both are Finnic nations. Tallinn's Old Town is actually built in German style. The Nevsky Cathedral is frowned upon by Estonians, it's a long story but basically it's because of forced Russification during the time when Finland, Estonia, Latvia etc were under Russian Empire.
@@TimmmTim The point is that we identify as Northeners. Foreigners especially Americans have weird geographical and social/cultural understanding of Europe as East and West when in fact everything isn't so black and white easy as they assume.
That's so cool that you'll be studying in Tartu - it's a great city!! We've heard they have a student day where everyone relaxes and plays games along the river which sounds like so much fun.
I love you guys so much!! This is such an amazing channel and it's really cool to see you guys living your best life! Thanks for sharing so much joy and beauty with the world. I wish you guys all the best and safe travels! I'm looking forward to seeing all the incredible places y'all are gonna visit!
It's a beautiful country for sure! We didn't get out to Haapsalu but we spent a day in Lahemaa National Park which was incredible. We'll hopefully be back again :)
Tips from 🇪🇪 Estonian (links in replys) @Jack and Gab Explore 04:42 You have been in the Old Town for the entire video,since first clip outside 01:09. You have not been outside of Old Town yet in this video as i understand. There's Uper Old Town and Old Town aka down Old Town. Yes it's cold as you are visiting in November the worst month to visit Old Town, in December the world famous Tallinn's Old Town Christmas Market will be open, in summers there's lots of street cafes and events on the Old Town town square. 06:45 I think with Tallinn Card the entrence is free to the tunnels.
Estonia is in Northern Europe, not Eastern Europe in the general context. Tallinn's (and Riga's) medieval architecture has nothing to do with Eastern European medieval architecture either as it's from an entirely different geographical and cultural region.
I hope you went in the second floor as well where there is a restaurant and an amazing view of the streets, they just recently redecorated it. You can also drink coffee/tea and eat pastries there as well as order some more fulfilling meals and amazing desserts. There is also a little marzipan museum linked with this cafe and if you're lucky, you can see how they handpaint the marzipans, read the history and ask questions as well. Also you can buy there little hand-painted marzipan figurines and other candies to go if you'd like. I worked in this cafe for two summers and it was an amazing experience, there are always lot's of tourists but also locals who love to visit this little cafe/shop 🤗
We actually have 5 nights planned for the 2nd week of November. This is great because it kind of gave us an idea of the weather at this time. We are from Philadelphia so we are used to colder weather =/
This is Tallinn's old town on a budget. Tallinn as a city has many things to offer and the medieval old town is a tiny part of it. Also, if we rec old town churches to visit I'd skip the Nevsky ("newer" church from 1900) and go to St. Olaf's Church (from 13th century, was believed to be the worlds tallest building in the 15th century) or St. Nicholas Church as another option (from 13th century, it's a museum and contains late gothic and northern renaissance works of art, most famously Danse Macabre painting) or St. Mary's Cathedral (oldest church in Estonia, 1240 has many medieval goats of arms, baroque pulpit and tombstones). All these churches are from a walking distance.
Brings memories. I am from Lithuania and I was studying in Finland. With students budget I used to take trip from Vilnius to Finland (Vaasa). I spend couple night in each town there are u traveling. I wish I could show more of Lithuania for u with history and culture lesson 😊
@@BradGrassforest How is Lithuania Western Russia? Those are two different countries, then you might as well say that for example, Portugal is Western Spain or USA is Southern Canada...
@@BradGrassforest According to the United Nations, Northern European countries are Denmark, Estonia, Finland, Iceland, Ireland, Latvia, Lithuania, Norway, Sweden and the United Kingdom. What to do with Western Russia? Oh, yeah, a big part of Western Russia used to be a part of The Grand Duchy of Lithuania-the biggest country in Europe in the middle ages if that what you meant.
What temperature was it that you always mention it's so freezing? I don't see any ice or snow so it most be above 0°C, isn't it? You did not wear proper clothing for freezing weather.
You should check out RØST. It's an amazing bakery. Watch 'em make delicious pastry treats and eat 'em right out the oven. I couldn't recommend it enough.
Tallinn´s climate is often humid, located at the sea, that makes it feel colder than usual, and in summer makes feel very hot, when it gets over +24 C.
Rulin Boys Records it's an historical cafe in the middle of our old town, 2.50 is a normal price for pastries in old town cafes. Most places are even more expensive and they don't have so good stuff there so .. 🙄
Can you make video with Talin bus ho don't have driver. Because Talin have only public transport in Europe ho don't have driver and is controlled by computer.
You should check out RØST. They have some of the best kaneelisai around. It's like a cinnamon bun but not like a cinnamon bun. I couldn't recommend it enough.
I am so looking forward to go in December....we’re living in India (Aussie family), but have already invested in thermals and down coats....how did you cope with not even a woollen scarf? You must have been miserable.
I dont wanna be rude or anything but if you are walking around without proper clothes for the local climate then ofc it's cold. Like wtf? I wouldn't wear a fur coat if i went to Dubai why would you wear open jacket and t-shirt if you come to northern Europe?
Would be Nice to see a Video like this from The Year 2020 ? Has there been any Corona - and limits on Ferries & Train & Bus & at Aeropuerto ? Is there Anyone - who has filmed this past 2020 SUMMER ?
i am a big fan ...both of you.... im following you from so many european cities ..... one of the cutest couple i have ever followed....... please say my name in your next video ..... i am waiting for that ...😊😊🙏🙏🙏✨
You should definitely try the beer called "Öö" brewed by Põhjala!! That is another level. Top in the world - www.ratebeer.com/beer/pohjala-oeoe/298025/ Or some other beers from Põhjala.
Estonian's get so peaved when people say Eastern Europe. They prefer the term Northern Europe. I'm from Europe and I don't even know if that's a thing but they will tell you it is.
You guys think it is cold now? Oh boy then you wont survive the Estonian winter XD Also, dont call Estonia Eastern Europe, we really do not like that 😂
Corona has Shut Tallinn & Estonians Down ! This way You Get More People - to Watch You Video ! You must mean COOL - Not COLD ! Everything compared to SAUNA is COOL - When You Hit The Town !
And hey #gab you are so cute you must've pursue by lot of guy's in your college and all the gals would envious of you BTW gab would you mine me to ask you what education you got I am curious to know about you guys:) #stayblessjackandgab
There is no cold weather, only the wrong clothing!
Yes you are right
Rapator Rapator a Absolutely
Guys, are you getting any warmer clothes? You will need them in November in Northern Europe, for sure.
Estonia is one of the most beautiful places you've visited as of now! I'm so stoked for the Asia trip. Can't wait to see your vlogs!!!

Kiviaeg 132 yes, and actually in January and February it's getting even colder 🤕

KrKyoutube on top of that beautiful chicas oh yeah
There's a great pancake shop in the old city very next to the pathway upto the castle in the center and the government building (3:20) if you haven't been!
We loved Estonia so much!! Is so beautiful!
Right!? Such an incredible country!!
This is not cold for us. Last year where I live it was -25 degrees
Pole midagi ma oli 18 tunnises vahetuses väravas Kuressaares 22 meetrit sekondis tuul kui väljas (varjus) kraadiklaas näitas -34 kraadi. (Y)
Meanwhile in Siberia: -88 degrees haha

Not only Tallinn, but many parts of Estonia are wonderful. I've been there 18 times because of my girl living there. I love Haapsalu in summer!

wow you did such touristy stuff
2:06 2.50 eur for this? I live in estonia and i saw the same thing for 50 cents, btw i live in Tartu

Its literally 20 degrees warmer here in Estonia now than usually. Normal november temperature should be around -5 to -15
Lol, what?! Estonia is not Sibiria Average day temperature in november in Tallinn is around +5 www.holiday-weather.com/tallinn/averages/november/
There are occasions, when tourists wear thick jackets, the locals are in hoodies or even t shirts
Estonians are way tougher than we are! :)
