Today we collected 2.3 GB sound material! I think some will be really interesting!

We made a big walking tour. Some of the places where we’ve been:

- the two main railway stations;

- the huge Synagoge and the beautiful Szt. Istvan Bazilika;

- the Andrassy avenue and many other streets with some chaotic traffic…

- a part of a shopping centre (more tomorrow…)  and many other small shops;

- many other sounds…

Enjoy it!

In Tallinn we had about 9 degrees and here it’s 29!

Tallinn was soundwhise very interesting. It’s a different experience, if you are aware about the sounds of a city!
