aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhh :) There is so much more in Viljandi. You made a very small circle in there! aaaaahhh!!! :)
But nevertheless, greetings to you from Viljandi!
Definitely come back!
Hi Alo, yeah it looked a really nice area with lots of nature reserves too. But unfortunately this was coming to the end of our 10,000km road trip and we were running low on time. We are really happy that we got to see what we did but yeah we need to come back again in the future. Always good to leave somewhere wanting to see more =)
Thanks for watching!

Baltics looks so nice, very pictoresque towns and villages. Wonderful video.
Hi, thanks for watching and we are glad you enjoyed the video. Yeah the Baltics have some very unspoilt picturesque towns and the countryside is nice too. It’s for sure a great travel destination.
Thanks for your comment and we hope you have enjoyed the playlist.
Sean and Emily 😊
One of the best things about moterbike riding is that you have the freedom to just decide to go back to check out something that caight your eye as you were driving past. Estonia is a great place for touring on a bike. The SE part Setomaa is well worth a visit. There are even Estonian roads that cross into Russia for a few hundred metres. You guys are very lucky that you are both into this great bike riding habit!
Hi Alex, yeah you’re totally right there. The freedom to explore whatever you see and on your own timeframe is second to none.
We really liked Estonia and would love to return to see a bit more of the country. Yeah we both love this type of travel so we make a great team.
Thanks for watching 😎👍🏻
Estonia looks like a very civilised place. You can tell a lot about a country by the condition of it roads and lack of litter. Great video. Thank you 🙂✌🏻
Estonia really was a lovely place. Yeah you are totally right! When you don't see any litter between the towns you know people have a lot of respect for their own country, we've been in countries where we saw people literally throwing everything out of their cars as they drive.
Thanks for watching
Sean and Emily
Wonderful trip, photography, AND couple. So friendly and accommodating. 👍
Thanks very much! This was such a great trip and we hope you enjoyed the Heading North Series as much as we did 😎👍🏻
Sean and Emily
Beautiful upbeat video-reporting from Estonia and Latvia! Was hoping to see an international kiss uniting EE and LV, but of course a bit impractical with handsome helmets on. Cheers, Valmiera brewery does produce some of LV's best beers, including a smoked ale. The countryside around Cesis and NW LV is lovely with woods, hillocks and winding streams. Next time if You have the opportunity, please visit Tartu, the cultural capital of EE - it's like the Oxford of the Baltics.
Hi, thanks so much for your comment and we are really glad you liked how we showcased beautiful Estonia and Latvia.
Yeah the bear was great -so refreshing after a big day on the road. We loved the countryside of Estonia and Latvia -it looks a lovely peaceful place to live and those farms and houses were beautiful.
We will be back sometime for sure as there was lots we didn’t have time to see, so thanks for the advice to visit Tartu 😊
Thanks again for watching and we hope you like the channel.

Amazing gravel roads😮 Great to stumble upon a bit of history that i never knew or heard about. I love the mix of riding, historic info and bad jokes 😂. Great video.
Hi, yeah fantastic gravel roads and almost nobody else using them 😁. We are so glad we stopped at the border as it was a very significant piece of history for the Baltics. Haha the perfect trio …I’m sure there’s more bad jokes to follow 😁.
Thanks as always for watching and commenting 😎🙌🏻
Sean and Emily
Eps just keep getting better and better. Love it!
Thanks ever so much for you kind comment! Really glad to hear that you enjoy the videos , there’s some great ones coming up in the next couple of weeks.

Your trip is truly a trip down memory lane for me. From Norway through Finland and then Estonia and Latvia. So many places I have been, too, with people who have been or still are oh so important to me. And in this video: Cesis
Hi Stefan, thanks so much for taking the time to leave a comment. It's great to hear that this is a trip down memory lane it's always nice to relive a past trip and it's amazing how certain places can leave a lasting impact on our lives. Sounds like you have a story to tell about Cesis, this was a Gem of Latvia and must have been a wonderful stay.
Thanks for watching and we look forwards to hearing form you again.
Kind regards
Sean and Emily
I learn so much watching your videos. THANKS!! 👏👍😁🇸🇪
Hi Göran, that's great to hear! We learn a lot on these trips too so glad to share any interesting facts we learn on the way.
Thanks for watching and we appreciate your comment.

What a wonderful adventure. I'm glad you finally found a place to eat.
Hi Kevin, yeah this was a great day on the bike and it’s always exciting entering a new country 😊. Hehe yeah us too -there wasn’t many options left.
Thanks for watching
I've finally caught up with your videos. Looks like an awesome trip.Enjoy!
Wow thanks for watching!! It’s been an incredible trip thanks 😎
If you’re looking for more to watch we also did a Heading South Tour 😁

That tower with red ball like thingies is indeed a old water tower :) they were pretty popular in soviet times and differentiated in sizes from 2 balls to 4 is largest, i usually 2 or 3
Thank you! We thought they were but couldn’t be sure! Thanks for clarifying that, so the 4 tanker was a good one to see 😊
Thanks for watching 👍🏻
Sean and Emily
Great video and commentary work. What month were yous in the Baltics?
Thanks Rodger! Glad to hear you enjoyed it. We were in the Baltics Mid to Late September, still warm but getting a bit chilly at times. 👍🏻
Lovely video, I really like how you broke up the straight tree lined roads (Avenues?) with lots of drone work, it worked well and kept it interesting, the 'follow me' mode is particularly good. Oh those huge puddles, I was really laughing as you had loads of room to go around yet rode right through it! it's a good job it wasn't 3 feet deep!!! 🤣Awesome!
Thanks for watching! Really glad you enjoyed it 😎🙌🏻.
Yeah the follow me mode works well but still has its limitations (can’t send it up to higher altitudes) so Emily actually pilots it manually from the pillion seat 🤩.
Haha yeah I think I got told off for a couple of those unnecessary’ splashing 😂. Haha yeah that would be funny and could probably send the channel viral 😁-almost worth digging the hole ourselves lol.
Thanks again
Sean and Emily
@@SeanandEmily That's great pilot work from Emily, especially as she is riding pillion! 🥇
Thanks so much 🙋🏼♀️
”Birds at 1 o’clock”
Have you worked in the military Sean ?😉
Nice v’log 🙌
Hi Ake! No I haven’t 😁 but sometimes in those outfits we feel like we are in some sort of unit 😁
Thanks for watching 😎🙌🏻
Beautiful , i enjoy different places and learning about the culture of the place. I never saw the large bird you referred to, but I am into birds of prey and suspect it was a European eagle owl, these are massive.
Thanks David, us too! Combining all those factors makes for a great trip 😊
It’s hard to see but maybe on the big screen at 4K it might be visible. It was next to the road just a bit ahead but flew off into the trees -it was pretty big though and dark brown coloured i I remember rightly.
Really glad you are still enjoying the videos and thanks for commenting 😊
Sean and Emily
Then I am happy. Seems a bit speedy but i trust You and apologize!
If you go to 15:20 the radar is 50 and green (bike shows 56 which is always higher than the actual speed). Speed limit is painted on the floor. It’s kph not mph.

Hi, always nice to have a local watching, we hope you like our videos of Latvia. We are sure there's much more to see but the time we had in Latvia we really enjoyed!! If you know anyone that might be interested in these videos please feel free to share them.
Thanks for watching and we appreciate your subscribing!

Looks like something from the Soviet era.
Yeah lots of Soviet remnants still about, in tonight’s episode we head to a soviet nuclear bunker!!! It’s like a time capsule!
Hey guys great vlog as always i must say im a little jealous of your journeying
Hopeful my wife will pass her bike test in the spring so we can get out
Together
Hi, thanks very much! Really enjoyed making this one 😊
That will be nice, where do you think you like to go?
Thanks for watching 😎👍🏻
@@SeanandEmily we will probably start small mid and south wales
Sounds good! We haven’t really seen much of south wales, I always used to ride around north Wales.
😎🙌🏻
@@SeanandEmily north wales is my playground as I live there
I know. Live in the neibourhood. 😂 Finland.
👍🏻
Watertower
Thanks for the information! We thought it was but couldn't be sure =)
Nice video again! You went to Viljandi and Cēsis where I haven't been yet even I have been driving around the Baltics. Last summer I did that same play in Valga/Valka so that I was jumping forth and back between Estonia and Latvia :D
I think you noticed that there are really lot of long straight gravel roads on the Baltic states. I have been wondering if they are from the Soviet occupation era and some bureaucrat in Moscow has just drawn lines on maps and given orders to build roads. If anybody from the Baltic states reads my comment and knows that, please confirm if my guess is right.
Thanks! 😊
Actually that’s a really good observation 🤔 and makes sense that they have just been drawn on paper as ‘there needs to be a road’
Hopefully someone will know 👍🏻
@@SeanandEmily I am a GeoGuessr player if you know the game, and the locations on those straight Baltic roads are often very challenging to pinpoint.
@@oh2mp ah yeah I know the game although haven’t played it much. But yeah if someone dropped us off in the middle of those roads I’d have no idea where we were 🤣
@@SeanandEmily sometimes you must click forward for minutes to find the first signpost which is useless :D
Communists loved asphalt, they asphalted everything that did not move and could not escape into a tree because asphalt was associated with progress.
Thanks! 😎🙌🏻
You guys are driving waaaay to fast thru the villages.
The speed limit through villages is 50 -most of the time we are doing less than this.
Does anyone live in that country? So empty.
I think there are only 1.3 million people in the entire country! Must be nice living in a country where everybody has so much space 😊
