In April 2017 we visited Kanepi, Estonia. We were hosted by Anne and Kalmer
Kukk, who have a nice big house near the Kanepi Gümnaasium. While our time
there it snowed, which was very different from the weather in Germany. In general
the climate in Estonia is relatively cold. Furthermore, the infrastructure in
Estonia is not that good as in Germany. The streets are often made from soil
and not in a good condition. Thats why we could not imagine to live in Estonia.
. We collected some impressions about Estonia and we experienced the wonderful
nature while spending time in the woods or rafting in Leevi. For example we saw
kingfishers and the typical estonian bird: the swallow.
Kanepi is a small village with 700 inhabitants. Nonetheless there are two
shops to buy food and the things for daily life. Our impression is, that most
estonians are shy,because they do not use to talk a lot.
We had a few lessons in school as well, but PE was our favourite one.
Moreover the school building seems to be very large for only 168 students.
Our host family was very friendly and although they do not speak english
and only a litte bit german we coped well with them. The food was delicious and
good.
All in all the exchange was a good experience and we were happy that Anne
and Kalmer hosted us.
