Great place every time 😌 Exquisite food options, local breweries, thrifting, historical old town, things work well in general 🫶 Bolt is very affordable way to move around, as is the puböic transport too. Nightlife is lively!

I traveled to Tallinn this january with my best friend for both of our birthdays. We went to amazing thrift stores but the thing that impressed me the most in Tallinn was the easy public transport. It was really simple to use and made our trip so relaxing.

I did like to visit the capital of Estonia but it is very expensive for me and since it's expensive there it took down the experience for me. But overall it is a great city and would recommend visiting

Tallinn is a Winter Wonderland and that was actually my first thought when I first landed there. I stayed for 3 months in Tallinn and I had no other choice than to actually fall deeply in love with the city and the country in general! I would love to return and relive everything again and again. For me, everything was dreamy and I am very grateful for the people I met during my stay and for everything in general!

Tallinn is one of the safest places you can visit. Just take normal precautions. Keep your belongings close, don’t go to sketchy dark streets alone, never leave your drink alone etc and you will be fine.
Posted: July 6, 2026Tallinn is overall very safe! In quieter districts you can have evening and nighttime walks with a peace of mind. But be careful of drunk people near Balti jaam train station at night. Wouldn't reccommend wandering the streets of Lasnamäe at night either.
Posted: June 12, 2026Tallinn is overall very safe. Maybe in Lasnamäe there are more Russians that mean more temperament, but if ur not looking for trouble, i’m not sure ur gonna get it. Overall everything has changed to being safer.

Tallinn is a relatively safe city, for example you can leave your stuff at your table at a restaurant and use the bathroom, and it will be the most natural thing to do - to not worry about somebody taking it. When you lose an item, it is more common for you to go back to that same place and see it placed on some table or given to some nearby shopkeeper than for it to be gone completely.

About me
Hey! I am honestly interested in so many different things and I love exploring new fields. During the summer I spend my time SUP boarding and swimming and hiking, and in the winter I have become a huge fan of cross-country skiing. I only started a few years ago but this season I finally felt like I was getting somewhere with it 🙈 I have a deep passion for psychology and astrology and I really enjoy photography and social media marketing. I also love long walks and deep conversations because that is where the best ideas usually come from. Nature is my biggest inspiration especially mountains and lakes and forests 🥰
