...where herring melted, where the kissing students stood there for years to kiss, and where the very kind old lady with big buckets of cottage cheeses gave me a thick slice of caraway cheese of the size of my palm to "try".

Tallinn
Jan2009 Jul2010
Before I left Austria for South America in July 2007, I promised myself if I ever come back to Europe to live again, I have to go to Estonia and Romania (and Greece and Turkey). In the home city of Kaisa I had my best conference chairing experience (thanks for the invitation!), and a fantastic time exploring Tallinn with Herdis, Aika and Elena. The medival architecture, the cobblestone roads, the irresistable Kalev chocolate, the flowers, the shopping, and most importantly the people made Estonia so special.

One of the most relaxing places (including all the happy tourists) ever.
