Yes, Estonia is a nice country with incredible many cute girls (when I had been there in 2002, I asked my Estonian K 70-fellow: "Is that here a permanent model-contest or what?" - but it's not real "safe" in all belongings. There are reasons, why the NATO became more active there in the last months...


And well, you are too young for that, but the life directly at the borderlines of more or less possible conflicts can really be smooth and comfortable. Were your parents grown up in Braunschweig? Just 50km away from the Iron Curtain, with direct Autobahn-access to the communist world (20 minutes when the A2 was empty - which it was back then)?

You know, which persons are most sad and angry about the fall of the Iron Curtain, The Wall? Those, who lived on the Western side just besides it. O.k., when the Cold War would have been become "hot", they would be the first dead - but otherwise they lived in a quite and calm paradise. No through-traffic, no foreigners, no burglary-gangs, just pure life-quality.
