Ilus Eesti, beautiful Estonia. My family's homeland. Estonia's countryside and people have an endearing gentleness about them which you fall in love with slowly and imperceptibly. I have nothing but respect and admiration for Estonians' courage and determination to survive despite centuries of repression, tyranny and foreign occupation. This blog aims to promote Estonian news, history and culture and seeks to enlighten readers about everything this unique country has to offer.

Song: The Great Awakening
As Estonians will be celebrating Restoration of Independence Day next Thursday (August 20) I thought now is a good time to share this patriotic song. 'The Great Awakening' was written by Alan Owens and sung by Estonian YouTuber Artur Rehi.
