Tagurpidi Lavka – farmers’ market
Yeah, sounds funny, but it makes sense in Estonian. :) We are a bunch of friends who started a non-profit venture called Tagurpidi Lavka. The idea of Lavka is to promote the importance of local food and bring fresh veggies, fruits and stuff from smal...

Since Estonia regained its independence in 1991, illegal dumping of garbage...

Song and Dance Celebration
..this is almost a sacred notion. It stands for the true birthday of Song and Dance, a great spiritual feast, a tradition not to be missed.
This is the festive reunion of an ancient folk, gathering from the cities as well as from the countryside. ...
