Vabariigi aastapaev - veebruar 24. Estonia's independence day - february 24. On this day in 1918, the estonian republic was proclaimed, declaring independence from soviet russia. however, august 20, 1991 is the date estonia declared its independence from the soviet union.

Which overlooks vabaduse valjak. 8 months of military service is. The after party ...

I really love canoeing. Posted by trudeehill at 3:36 PM. Posted by trudeehill at 3:36 PM. Okay, okay. it just dawned on me that all the pictures i just added to this blog posted backwards so bear with me. Our reward began just a few hours later with sauna! Sauna in estonia is a ritual, many people go once or twice a week with friends and family, you spend some time inside the sauna, rinse off, then cool off outside, talking and drinking. when the cold air starts to get to you, back into the sauna! Saturd...

Trudee Hill: April 2006
http://trudeehill.blogspot.com/2006_04_01_archive.html
Posted by trudeehill at 12:36 PM. So much to tell. I just got back from my whirlwind tour of estonia. the entire country in 9 days seemed a bit overzealous when andrew and i were mapping everything out but we found that we could see what we wanted to and more in just 7. partly because this country is so small (about the size of vermont and new hampshire combined) and partly because i have a lead foot. So that's what we did. and you know what? Our first hostel in narva was freezing. When you realize that ...

Now it's time for visits with old friends, moving to a new city, catching up with family, and the dreadful job/apartment hunt. i don't know exactly what will happen to this blog. i began writing as a way of keeping friends and family back in the states up-to-date. now that my time in estonia is over, should the blog end as well? I'd love to hear what you think. Posted by trudeehill at 2:07 PM. Thanks to graham mitchell. The photographer who shot the work! Posted by trudeehill at 12:35 AM. So much to tell.

Tallinn at 10 am, the snow reflects the minimal light making it almost bright out! Posted by trudeehill at 8:05 PM. The most commonly asked question of foreigners in estonia has to be "are you cold? I'm told that it may even reach -26 degrees C (-12 degrees F) tonight. what? What did you ask? Yes yes i am. Even though my curtains were literally frozen to my bedroom window, my apartment is not cold. it's actually quite toasty. you just can't touch the windows for an extended period of time. Uus and huvita...
