What to Pack for a Winter Weekend in Tallinn
If like me, you’re usually a pretty heavy packer then packing carry on luggage for a long weekend can be a struggle. My brain tells me things like ‘what if you want to wear that top you haven’t worn in 4 years whilst your out there’ and ‘ooh you’d better pack triple the amount of…

Of course, catching a bus or train is a lot better than a plane, but there really is no perfect method of…
