#1 A blast of winter at Loch Lochy
@natubat is off hiking in the Scottish mountains in UK again. This time she tackles two munroes and the total hike is 12km. It migh not sound a lot, but when you're hiking in Scottish unpredicatable weather in the winter, it's no easy task. The first ascend is relatively easy, 300m zig zag uphill. And by the time she gets to her second munro, she is trekking through deep snow. During her hike, she meets another hiker who is camping 700m up in the mountain, and local farmer with his flock of sheep.

#2 The Tallinn Bastion Tunnels - Tallinn, Estonia
@coldsteem takes us to visit some ancient tunnels in Estonia. The Tallinn Bastion Tunnels dates back to the 1670s and have been used for different purposes over the years. The tour starts with video presentation and moves back during time as you go through the tunnel. From the most recent times where they were used for partying, to housing the homeless, and as bomb shelters during the second world war. To round off the tour, visitors are taken on a train ride to the future to 2219 which is 1000 years after the Danes at Tallinn.

#3 Bed & Breakfast, Kalbar, Q'ld.
For our last featured post @trudeehunter came across a lovely listed house in Australia. It is located at Queensland and is currently run as a bed & breakfast. The house was built in 1900 and overlooks the Fassifern Valley and majestic mountain ranges. When @trudeehunter found this B&B the jacarandah trees were blooming and the street was lined in magnificent mauve flowers. Sounds like she's planning a stay here very soon.
