Estonia
Overview
Estonia is a Baltic state. Tallin has an old town section that feels like medieval times until you see the tech startups. Locals head to islands in summer and saunas in winter. Trains link bigger towns and buses handle the rest. The food’s is evolving – traditional meat and potato dishes are combining with new Nordic cooking. Forest paths lead to empty beaches. Everyone uses the internet for everything and Estonia has a great e-residency program. Prices run lower than Helsinki but higher than Latvia.
