Video Description:

I have always been attracted to the Baltic countries as a travel destination. When it comes to people talking about traveling in Europe, the Baltic countries are often forgotten and left out from most conversations due to the lack of large tourism industries you would come to expect in cities like Paris and Amsterdam, and that is the exact reason why I decided to go there in 2018.

From its fairy-tale-like forests to medieval castles, to all its charming cities, the Baltic Countries gave me the opportunity to experience the forgotten part of Europe, a part that had been through so much, being lodged in between great powers, subjugated, and fighting for their independence, and yet they were able to preserve so much of their identities.

I spent more than a week traveling around Lithuania, Latvia, and Estonia, visiting all kinds of places from Vilnius to Tallinn, stopping by many tourist attractions along the way. It's hard to capture the emotions I have with these wonderful places, and so I decided to compile all the favorite moments I had during my trip in the Baltic countries into this 3-minute travel video you see here.

The Baltic Way, a combination of great experiences, stunning sceneries, and fun upbeat music, is compressed into a travel video that I hope does the Baltic countries justice. I hope you enjoy this video as much as I do making them!

Wondering what camera I am currently using? Here are all the camera gear I usually take with me when I am traveling:

Camera: Sony a7R V, the highest resolution full-frame camera out there, is my go-to camera when I travel. All of my recent photos and videos are all from this beast.
All-Around Travel Lens: Sony 24-70mm f2.8 GM II lens is the lens I mounted on my camera the most. The lens covers most of the ranges I need for travel from wide to telephoto. If I have to take only one lens with me on my travel, it would be this lens.
Ultra-Wide Lens: Sony 16-35mm F2.8 GM II Lnes: An ultra-wide lens I often use to shoot expansive landscapes and capture massive architecture I stumble upon while traveling.
Telephoto Lens: Sony 70-200mm F2.8 GM II lens is one of the most versatile lenses to have. It is great for picking out details in landscapes and capturing wildlife when combined with the Sony FE 2x teleconverter.
Portrait Lens: Sigma 85mm F1.4 DG DN Lens is the most compact and lightweight 85mm F1.4 lens out there. It's sharp and produces stunning bokeh for subject separation, perfect for portraits and street photography.
Drone: DJI Mavic Mini 2, a perfect drone for those who travel light. It weighs less than 250g and smaller than an iPhone when folded and can capture 4K video as well as 12 megapixels RAW photos. More than enough for its size.
Bag: Langly Alpha Globetrotter is a camera bag I use to carry all these lenses as well as other essentials when I'm traveling.
