Thank you for s...What a FANTASTIC this post, Siiri! Thank you for sharing a little bit of your home with us. Happy Birthday to Estonia! I want you to post a video of YOU speaking your language. Then we can see you in action. I love how much books are able to connect people all over the world. We speak the same language of stories and I often forget that we live in very different places. Are there any important historic or cultural sites in Estonia? I'd love to learn about them. Or types of art or culture you're known for. I look forward to this Friday's post.

People still think that Bosnia is in war, even though the war ended like 20 years ago O.o. Anyhow I truly love your county it's so beautiful. All countries there on north have beautiful nature and wonderful cities. I truly hope I'll visit one day. Just in case there are no pillows, you'll borrow me one, right? ;)) <br /><br />Amazing post, dear ;)Tanja - Tanychyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15084789780467257259noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8957870564580513499.post-10562548366059642972014-02-09T09:00:45.835+02:002014-02-09T09:00:45.835+02:00This is one fantastic post.

I always love hearing about where bloggy friends are from, but I love learning about other countries as well so this is even double the amazing. I don't think I've actually heard of Estonia before *shamefaced* but I thought it sounded very fantastical, you know? So great to learn new facts and it's funny hearing about others' perceptions!

The Old Town Christmas photo looks gorgeous! <br /><br />I'd love to know what kind of bands you get coming through there for concerts (for your next post). :)Rachelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16682335183798720529noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8957870564580513499.post-61499784865963394142014-02-08T03:02:13.125+02:002014-02-08T03:02:13.125+02:00Loved this post!

We also only have 2 days I didn't know some had 3. Unless you count Christmas eve but people still work and nothing is closed etc so it's not technically a holiday day. And OMG I freaking love that town picture it's gorgeous for one, but it sounds so much like the storybook towns I've always wanted to live in! Aww!! Also I share a bday month with your country and only 3 days apart! Woot!

I can honestly say that when I got off the cruise ship in Tallinn with a flurry of tourists, I did NOT expect you to live in huts:) *pats self on back* Estonia was one of my very favorite stops on our trip and I can only hope I'll find my way back over there someday. It was extraordinarily beautiful and my family and I enjoyed every moment we were there. My mom was obsessed with all the amazing wool sweaters and other knits, she couldn't help but go in every store that sold them and stop at every booth in that square. She was in heaven:)Jennyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14199685365145765394noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8957870564580513499.post-53626274524583264112014-02-07T08:58:23.641+02:002014-02-07T08:58:23.641+02:00Wow that picture of Christmas looks amazing!

I had to take off ugly christmas sweater because I was sweating.
