Our summer 2018
Baltic Circumnavigation journey took us through 8 European countries, beginning
and ending in Hanseatic Lübeck. Over the 6 months of our travels, we spent up to
6 weeks each in Lithuania, Latvia and Estonia, with the privilege of visiting
the Parliament in each of
the Baltic Republics' capital cities. Crossing the
Baltic from Tallinn to Helsinki, we returned through Southern Finland from the
Russian border at Vaalimaa, island hopping down the Turku Archipelago and the
Åland Islands, and finally through SE Sweden to re-cross the Baltic to our start
point. We travelled a total of almost 9,000 miles through all these European
countries, without let or hindrance, and with all the freedom
of movement that the privileged freedom of Schengen and our British/EU driving licences still allow. We are now pleased to present this this series of travelogues and pictorial record of our 2018 Baltic travels, as an encouragement to others to consider this relatively unknown but exceptional region as a travel destination.
