A blade for a turbomachine includes an airfoil portion and a root portion, the airfoil portion has an outer wall having a pressure side, suction side, leading edge and trailing edge, the outer wall extending between the leading edge and a trailing edge of the airfoil portion, a first cavity between the pressure side of the outer wall and a first inner wall, a second cavity between the suction side of the outer wall and a second inner wall. The first and second inner wall form a receiving cavity therebetween. The receiving cavity is fluidly connected to both the first and second cavity. The cooling fluid in the first and second cavity is conducted in a direction from the trailing edge to the leading edge and the cooling fluid in the receiving cavity is conducted in a direction from the leading edge to the trailing edge.
