The route passed through the Müritz National Park, a place known as the land of a thousand lakes, and it was stunning to cycle through it. Also, it was the first time I spotted any other cyclist on the Berlin to Copenhagen route. Especially when I got to Waren, a gorgeous city by the Müritz Lake, I could spot people bike-packing, and it felt nice to be part of a group.

What can we say about our stay at Scandic Passi in Helsinki? First, we have to say that it was one of the best hotels we have ever been. If you are asking yourself why, let us tell you our reasons. So, the hotel is beautifully designed to remember the area’s history. All the walls in the hotel are decorated with a circus theme that may sound a little creepy but works perfectly. From the reception area to the number of the rooms, everything looks so cool that you might feel like you want to copy it in your house later.

Before I decided to go to Kaliningrad in October 2017, I did a lot of research about the places I wanted to see and where I could stay. Finding the tourist spots and the unusual places I like to visit was straightforward and simple. But, finding where to stay in Kaliningrad was more complicated than I was expecting. Maybe, it's because this small piece of Russia between Lithuania and Poland is not known as a tourist destination. Perhaps it's something else.
