Photos on Facebook
It would have taken too long to put them all up on Tumblr.

Istanbul
Watching the game and chilling in Riga
Stockholm, day 1
I’m not happy with how Tumblr handles multi-photo posts (max 10, no higher-quality versions, 40-char captions). But this will have to do for now.
I got my one-way ticket into Stockholm for very cheap from Icelandair. Unfortunately, this meant I had an 8 hour overnight layover in Iceland’s Keflavík airport (Reykjavík).
The airport was nice and there were lots of good places to crash, but I didn’t sleep much because of the time difference.
Reykjavík only has about 4 hours of darkness on the average day in June.
Waking up at 3am to check in online was totally worth it. (I bought an economy ticket.)
I hope this takes off. Not having Yelp abroad sucked.
I use my iPhone the most when I’m somewhere unfamiliar (usually for Google Maps and Yelp). One of the things that sucked most abroad was the lack of cheap/free data service. Every country has different cell phone providers.
These apps give you offline maps and offline geo-aware recommendations, which should be a godsend.
Really looking forward to seeing Munich, especially since Berlin was my favorite European city last time around.
