Free Wifi in Europe
Europe is a highly modern continent and one of the ways in which it demonstrates this is with its adopting of new technologies. It doesn’t take much searching to find free wifi in Europe for example, and most of the big cities, certainly in Western Europe, do provide free connections that mean you can get on with work, surf the web and download media all while on the move without having to get charged from your service provider.
Cities like Paris, Berlin and London are great for finding free wifi in Europe (Paris is particularly good), but these offerings still pale in comparison to one particular city in Europe: the city of Tallinn.
Tallinn is the capital of Estonia, and if you really want free wifi in Europe this is where you should go. In fact Tallinn provides free wifi for practically its entire city and you will find orange and black stickers on shop windows all over Tallinn promoting this fact. But not only do the shops and businesses provide this free wifi in Europe, but so too does the city itself.
Just to show how hot on free wifi in Europe Tallinn really is here are some facts. First of all Tallinn airport was the first airport in the world to offer free wifi across the airpot. In many other European and Western countries you still need to pay for internet usage at kiosks. Meanwhile even some of the buses offer free wifi (as well as flat-screen TVs and electrical outlets). The city is among the top ten in the world for free wifi, and in total there are over 64 wifi hotspots available completely free.
This is not the only example of Tallinn and Estonia being incredibly technologically advanced. Many people refer to Tallinn as something of a second ‘Silicone Valley’ and internet startups are one of the largest contributors to the Estonian economy (50% of which comes from Tallinn). Among these startups are the immensely popular Skype – the video conferencing software that is perfectly suited to free wifi in Europe.
Perhaps most amazingly of all though, Tallinn was also the home of the world’s first ever online election which truly may pave the way for the rest of the planet. Free wifi in Europe then is only the start of Tallinn’s digital pioneering, hopefully other countries will follow suite soon.

To have free Wifi in Europe is great. I frequently travel with my notebook. And I do not have an internet stick. So, free wifi in Europe is great for me. This way I can have internet everywhere I go.
I had no idea that if you want free wifi in Europe ,Tallin is where you should go. I have never visited Tallin or Estonia. But I would really love to live there. Tallinn provides free wifi for practically its entire city, this is so cool. Wifi in Europe is something we all need. I would love my city to ‘adopt’ free wifi <3.
It would be nice to hear that all capital cities have adopted a free wifi in Europe. It would be nice to have internet in all big cities of the world. This is the era of technology! So free wifi in Europe is necessary. Hope to see this in the future.
Tallinn is the capital of Estonia? I didn’t know that. I must study harder at geography.
Anyway…in my opinion free wifi in Europe is very important. This is the era of technology right??
Free wifi in Europe is something we all need for sure. I travel a lot with my notebook. This is my work. And I really need free wifi in Europe. Moreover I’m very sure there are many cases like me.
All coffee shops, bars, restaurants and places should have free wifi in Europe. This is something we need all the time. Internet has become more important than phones. This is internet era. So yes, free wifi in Europe is needed!
