EVS in Estonia

Yes, we have finished our voluntary project. It’s usually a sad moment, but for some reason, it isn’t really the case for us. We’ve had wonderful times here in Estonia and we did what we had / and wanted to do in our project. We are also staying until the 19th of December, which gives us time to enjoy a little more of Estonia, travel to the neighbouring baltic countries (coming soon) and realize this is the end. As we said, maybe we will get to come back one day and work this time in Tallinn. Who knows ?
For now however, we have been doing departure parties with our different friends. For our estonian ones from Joelahtme, and the people we’ve met, from the city council, or our estonian teacher in Loo, we did a french buffet dinner party, at MArgits new house. an intimate family type party, where we nicely discussed and watched slideshows of pictures we took and tested a swing we built that evening in Margits living room.

On Friday, we rented a private Sauna in a restaurant, in Tallinn old town. There was a very large room to eat and sit in, and then a shower and sauna room where we could all relax and continue talking. A great time we had, with volunteers we knew and new ones which have arrived more recently. Some were also ex-volunteers which came back to Tallinn and are now working there. There were people from all countries : georgia, ukrain, poland, germany, spanish, portugese, french… more people from other countries joined us later in the evening. How unique and pleasant it was to be with people like us, but from all over ! We ate well, and enjoyed being together. A good way for us to say goodbye, even if we will see some of the volunteers again before we leave.
