Estonia in the world’s cultural space

Warm greetings to our fellow Ukrainians who, for various reasons, have chosen Estonia as their home – a country whose birthday we will soon celebrate on 24 February.

We present an educational slide filmdevoted to the main events in the country’s social and cultural life.

Those of you, friends, who correctly answer a few questions based on the film and send your answers to liubovlaur@gmail.com will receive a gift from us.

Good luck!

Happy upcoming Estonian Independence Day to us all!
