In the places we have visited so far in Europe, we have sampled the local food wherever possible. What follows are the highlights of our food experiences from Latvia, through Scandinavia, and on to Slovenia.
Scandinavia is one of the most beautiful areas in the world. It is also one of the most expensive places to visit. Darren writes about our tips on saving money in this region.
We have spent the past few days in the capital cities of Tallinn, Estonia and Helsinki, Finland. The two cities are located about 50 miles (80 kilometers) across the Gulf of Finland from one another. We enjoyed learning about the history and culture of both places.
