10 days in Estonia

It has been great to be back and I´ve been enjoying my time with my family and friends.:)

Apart from this, some things I´ve noticed:

1. IN media, the main daily news include the number of ppl being killed because of drunken drivers. It´s HORRIFYING!!!!Imagine HOW MANY ppl die within a year just becuase of these irresponsible drivers!!!

2. The ´summer´ here means a daily temprature of 20 to 24 degrees and for me, it´s far to COLD! My God, HOW will I survive the winter?????

3. The culture of services is in many cases BAD: it´s slow and unfriendly, espcially in state insitutions. Luckyly, there have been some good cases as well:)

4. The prices have gone up! and this change seems really big, at least to me! The prices for food are the same with other Western European countries.

I am afraid, that Estonian salaries, at the same time, are much lower than in WE countries......


In my next post, I try to bring up positive discoveries:)
