Tallin, Estonia | I'm officially missing Tartu these days. Of the couple of times I have been to
Tallinn (i.e. the Old Town) while living in Tartu for nearly a year, I could
not recall any instance when I went there, to actually be there. Every single
time I spent in that lovely piece of haven was unplanned and circumstantial, which was a disservice to the place, given the paradise that it is. It’s just funny how
sometimes we tend to underappreciate the beauty of things and places that are within our
grasp as we set our sights too far. I guess the famous “The Times We Had” etched
on that Kohtuotsa viewpoint wall sums up all those times I had (and never get the
chance to have) in experiencing the Estonian mix of cold and warm living, which
was rather short but sweet, and certainly worth trying again.
