During September media exchange program we had a possibility to question foreign students about Tallinn; their likes and dislikes and what makes Tallinn special to their hearts.



Tallinn, the capital of Estonia, is famous for its university life, night bars, museums and highly evolved cultural life. It is full with university students and youngsters from all over the Europe that are searching for adventure and new beginnings.
Mailiis, a student from Estonia, evaluates on the behavior or people from different cultures and backgrounds. The way the behave and the way they act; the buildings and architecture are not the things that create the atmosphere of the city and country. The main reason for her to participate in this exchange program is to meet new people from all kinds of cultures and have a multilingual experience. The other participant, Patrick from Poland expresses the main reasons for coming to Tallinn, which includes beer, old town, Estonian weather and nice women. Third participant Victor from Hungary expresses his fascination with Tallinn’s ancient churches, Tallinn’s main square and famous northern sunsets.
Maja, nineteen-year old exchange student from Poland, who experiences her very first European exchange program romanticizes Tallinn’s medieval narrow streets, it’s architecture and it’s cultural landscape. She expresses her wish to come back again and experience once again the wonders of northern magic.  Massimo, Sardinian exchange student was also not oblivious to the Estonian cultural heritage and legends surrounding the capital. The twenty-year old compares the differences between his culture and completely opposite Estonian culture that helps to shape multicultural perspective and helps to develop a dialog between opposite European cultures.
A hope for united, tolerant European future has never looked brighter.
