Hell again...

Jack's sad... Indeed he is...

He has left someone very important for him in his last destination, Riga... What? Jack has someone important in his life? How come? The cold, ruthless, braggart and good old Jack... Feelings? Yes... maybe it is that... Good old Jack... I'm getting old, maybe... Or maybe I'm just feeling melancholic because these days are quite special for me, since these are the days of the anniversary of my piece of art... Who knows? Human mind is so complicated...

Anyway, Jack's back! No more Riga, I'm here again, in my beloved Barcelona... A city I'm in love too... But, somehow, a place in which is getting more difficult to live... What I found interesting and funny before -people coming and going, noise, summarizing: city life- it's starting to annoy me... I know, I know... Riga's a city also, indeed, but it's not the same... Not so big city as Barcelona, not so many people... Mmmm... Maybe I should move... Besides, you should know I like wearing a warm, dark, long black cout... and it's becoming imposible to wear that kind of clothes here because of this awfully hot weather... Hence my doubts... Time will say!

Ok, just to take away the affliction away I'll make you a recommendation. I love watching series, in fact I'd say that nowadays I rely more on series than on cinema... So, my recommendation couldn't be another: Dexter. About America's favourite serial killer, Dexter is one of the best series nowadays, for me at least. It's about a man, Dexter, who has something inside which pushes him to kill... what he calls the Dark Passenger... However, he has been raised by a policeman, who teaches him to use his impulses for a good purpose: Chase and kill criminals who have avoided police for their crimes... So, Dexter, basically, scavenges criminals from Miami's streets... But, of course, he needs a masquerade: his job. He's a blood expert forensic working for Miami Police, and pretends to have a normal life with his girlfriend, Rita, in spite of having no feelings at all... 2 different lifes, 1 true, 1 false... Difficult to combine!


And I won't say anything else! If you like it, watch it! Nowadays they're broadcasting its 4th season in the States, but not yet in Spain... My recommendation: Watch it in English with subtitles... Just because the original voices are really much better than the dubbed ones...

And if you like it, try with the novels, they are simply fantastic!!

Ok, so nothing else... See you around, my readers...

Wow...

Yes, Tallinn's Old Town can be described just like this: "Wow"... But first is first...

As I told you, Jack crossed the border a couple of weeks ago, and visited Estonia's Capital city... But, before wandering across the city, just some miles away from Latvian border, and already in the neighbour country, Jack found one interesting sign, about a camping place close to the road... So, what's interesting about that, some of you would say? ...I don't like your manners, but anyway I'll show you a picture I took of that place, so you can understand how surprised I was...

Curious, huh? Another piece of Barcelona far away from the city... Interesting indeed! Ok, just talking about Tallinn's city, I must say that its Old Town is very very beautiful! Even more beautiful than Riga's Old Town, I'd say... But, of course, plenty of people... That's precisely what I didn't like about it... It was like returning to Barcelona, a little bit... Don't misunderstand me, there are people in Riga, also for sure... Quite much... But I haven't had that feeling of being a canned sardine any time... And I had that same feeling in Tallinn... Too bad! But, of course, it is quite normal that such a beautiful place is packed with people... Normal and understandable...

My favourite place? Of course the Town Square is bery beautiful, with a lot of colourful houses and nice Sidewalk Cafes. But, like in all of these kind of places, what's best is just to wander around, without any course... to see what you find: Old charming houses, gingerbread-alike churches, hidden corners, lovely landscapes... Discovering these places is what's beautiful, at least for good old Jack.

In one of those walks I found a Medieval restaurant, called Olde Hansa, where you could eat real medieval dishes, from some kind of old texts or something like that... Or at least that's what they said! And curious Jack took the bait... Because I wanted to test something, at least... And yes: They don't use potatoes, of course! Nor coke, nor modern stuff, nor anything like that! Restrooms were scary dark, only illuminated by a couple of candles... Not enough candles, indeed!

Dishes were quite nice, from a delicious steak I had to the grilled salmon my precious companion ate... All garnished with all kind of legumes and beans (even bean's bread)... It looked like this:


Anyway, in addition to tasty food, Tallin's a very nice place worth visiting! I'd like to visit it again definitely... You should know by now: Jack loves dark and narrow alleys...
