Tampere Travel Blogs

Hey there! I am Moose. I was a lonely little teddy bear figure on a shop shelf in the middle of Tampere, Finland, before two young (and werid people) decided to 'BUY!' me and took me with them. Until now, I had a pretty uneventful life. I was made in Sweden in a factory, got given a piece of clothi…

Today started cloudy, but during the day the sun came out :D We went to the Moominvalley museum, the cathedral and a park with a view of one of the big lakes. We even saw a few weddingcouples at the cathedral.   This morning started with a bit of rain, so we decided to start the day with cu…

i arrived in tampere in the early evening - i was planning on sleeping in the airport. unfortunately, as i soon found out, the airport consists of two terminals in separate buildings, one for ryanair, and one for all other flights. both of them close overnight for a few hours. nevertheless, i…

For a cheap flight to London Stansted we went further north to Tempere. This is the furthest north I've ever been.We were going to spend a day sightseeing, but... Everything in Helsinki was close since everyone left town. And everything in Tampere was close since everyone there had also left town. …

Toen wij vanmorgen wakker werden was het ernstig bewolkt, maar vol goede moed als wij zijn begonnen we toch met frisse moed aan de dag. Rond een uur of half negen zaten we aan het ontbijt dat we ons goed lieten smaken. En na de laatste restjes bagage te hebben ingepakt en in de auto te hebben gezet…

While visiting one of my best friends, who live in Finland, we took a one-day trip to Tallinn in Estonia. We had a great day, beautiful weather and many great experiences. Unfortunately my friend Milla was unlucky enough to loose her wallet to some person with "sticky fingers". Tallinn is definitly worth a visit and we had a really great day! (and Finland is not so bad either!)

looooooong trip! definitively english people are stupid and less polite than what I thought. We had to take a bus to Stansted airport and we were running trying to find the entrance coz only one door in the opposite corner from the main one was open (and it was the big one were buses pass and pedes…

We woke up and went to breakfast; I was starving! Then we had a look around Tampere, which is often described as the "Manchester of Finland". It is quite a pleasant town, with the streets set out in a grid pattern, thereby making it easy to navigate around. We first had a look at the Russian Orthad…

El viaje en tren fue tranquilo, tratando de no dormirme mientras caía la lluvia. Llegué a la estación, tomé un taxi y fui directo al hotel. Al rato fui a dar una vuelta por el centro pero la lluvia, aunque fina, no paraba de caer. Me fui al hotel, vi una película en la laptop y a dormir hast…

well finland is pretty nice when you first get there. the people are shy but very friendly. every season has its beauties. finnish summer is great, its usually pretty warm and you can go swimming in one of the 10.000 lakes ^^ finnish winter is the greatest! it lasts up from november till april. they have snow about 2 feet high (about 60cm) so winter sports such as skiing, snow boarding, ice skating and ice hockey etc are very big there. fresh water and lots of forests - thats finland!

When we walked out of the hostel it was still raining... bummer! So we decided to go to the moomin museum. The museum was really nice and the shop had some great stuff too. When we walked out of the museum it was not raining anymore, but still very cloudy. We went to the city centre and we spotted…
