Estonia... A Very Pleasant Surprise


I recently attended a conference called 'Game Jam' on behalf of my company, Cashplay. The conference was held in Tallinn, Estonia.


Of course, I didn't know what to expect - and I was very pleasantly surprised. There's a very cool combination of gothic era architecture merged with modern buildings. Don't tell the Czechs this, but their English was generally better than what I have encountered in Prague. It also has a very mobile tech culture of not only usage, but programming and development as well. And WiFi was available everywhere... I mean everywhere, even the parks.


The food was quite good. There's a lot of international cuisine in Tallinn, and all of it is delicious. I hosted a dinner at a Mediterranean restaurant which served better prepared food than any equivalent I've had back home in Austin, Texas. I also met some great people in the process. Special hugs to Kadri and Kati.


I just realized, that's probably the highest point in terms of latitude I've ever been!
