I'm back! I survived wandering around the Baltics for a couple of weeks or so... and much fun it was too! Took me a bit to get out of the groove, and didn't meet many people while I was in Latvia, but by the time I got to Stockholm I was well into holiday traveller mode :)

Stockholm is a beautiful city... so much less crowded than London, but then, most places are. Got a chance to see some bits outside of cities with a quick whizz round one of Estonia's national parks, and at least looking out at it from the bus between Riga and Liepāja.

Liepāja was rather less touristy than the rest... my first time being up close and personal with the Baltic sea :) I got rained on a lot though! Kind of sad to see large chunks of it empty and falling into dereliction... the gradient from downtown revived city to grim "suburbia" was pronounced in all the Baltic State cities. Not as harsh as in Bangalore, but still there...

Picture is some storage bunker just off the coast, somewhere in Lahemaa :)

    Hey! Sorry it took me so long to comment! I should have written something way sooner since we were talking about your vacation right before you left. Sorry. >.<
    This is a cool picture! That dark brown thing is an old door, right? It looks pretty epic. XD
    I'm glad you had fun! Sorry you got rained on though! =/
    Did you take a lot of pictures? I love taking pictures when I'm on vacation, haha. X]
    Also, I really love the coat you're wearing in this picture!! Looks nice. =D
