ESTONIA
I used to live in this country all of my first 13 years,with just a small amount of visits abroad from it to our closest relatives that lived in Ukraine.The country is weirdly different by its completely different layers of life and sitizens with amazing difference between richest and more intelligent citizens upwards/the capital city Tallinn on 1 side and its poorest and less mindy/intellectual people in smaller villages downwards;even as i used to live in many spots in my life never did i see SUCH changes inbetween society layers and groups as i did see in Estonia.Their social groups are greatly divided and even never meet each other in real life,proceeding with their own occupations all along "those...freaks" that move about the same streets(and even this mostly never happens).Not that i did have much(if any in fact)contacts with upper class people;our life was most every day in the lower estonian life levels;yet i lived there long enough to understand their lifestyle in enough details i need for this.Let us say roughly that what we find in a well situated Tallinn dweller is somewhat like 100 times of the very exact substance(estonians are basically very simple people with really basic interests just the way any well situated guy becomes naturally with time flowing)village dwellers of Estonia have;and this difference is almost all in the ''brainy games'' area;amounts of mental activities,just the way it is over the world,are the main difference among people.Well-to-do estonians just need to be very well versed with any detailed life technologies;life that does NOT include detailed techologies of A sort is simply not successful and ''goes off the way'' there.We lived upon the lowest level of village dwellers and life for a Tallinn(capital)inhabitant is very much different.Even in winter's coldest months(ours was most populous/economically active northern coastal area)during the coldest for a winter day predawn period(days are nondifferent by the seacoast there by temperature),all i needed to be hot enough were a sweater,over which a hot raincoat with more than 1 layer of fabric,was laid.Coastal area never allowed any significant temperature changes during a season.What was interesting is amount of purely sunny days was much limited;most times these were replaced with either small droplets'/rain falling the way well-by-the-sea areas normally are,or else cloudy dark skies;as much as i read,estonian climate well reminds the english 1.And these were coldest of all day variations;we were swimmimg in the sea in summer;the seawater is good for bathing there only during best summer monthys of june to august.Thats to explain temperature limits to our life in general.The beach we were to,in a town and a railway station of Klooga Rand(the sand of Klooga in translation),had 1 interesting detail to it-as you enter the sea you must travel like a full 100 mmetres or so till the water gets deep enough for you to swim finally.My understanding of this situation(i had never been to a beach,THAT remote from swimming areas)is that the society gives additional warning/chanses to a citizen to avoid swimmimg-estonians are never effective physically and most of their time spend,working over complicated things like internet programmes,accounting etc.In recent years i even encountered(am following estonian affairs upon internet somewhat out of my chilhood born interest to it)a much new to any country,yet popular for estonians,a reality of life-"electronic citizenship" Estonia allows via electronic processes that do not ever require 1 to ever appear in Estonia at all physically,but only to fill certain papers to allow it.Mostly speaking,lower life is either nonexistent in Estonia or else it just isnt interestuing enough to follow actively;as ours was a lower town life,i am not following the theme actively.As i attempted for a renewal of etsonian citizenship from Israel i was told that i would get all the support 1 needs in life provided the very first steps i made perfectly upon my own;meaning once i entered/was feeling there well enough myelf,Eesti(the way the country sounds to estonians)would come to my help.
