It's a phenomenon that happens every year in Estonia and once again the aurora borealis (virmalised in Estonian) didn't disappoint onlookers when it lit up the sky with a dazzling display of colour. It's a spectacular sight that I keep missing. One day I really want to see the northern lights with my own eyes!
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.
