Estonian Girls - Beautiful, Sexy and working

Why Do Foreign Men Marry Estonian Women?

Beyond these superficial glimpses at the opposite sex, there is the real phenomenon of foreign boys shacking up with Estonian girls. Some people wonder why. I'll tell you why. Because the traveling-guy-meets-exotic-foreign-female-and-settles-down-to-sire-a-multitude-of genetically-diverse-children parable is the oldest tale in the book. Ever since Fletcher Christian spied some random Polynesian teenager, mariners like ourselves have been doing it.

But why we stop in Estonia? Why not proceed through Latvia and then conquer all of Belarus? Free Wifi. No, actually, Estonian women are not alone in this regard. Across Europe Americans and Brits and others routinely partner with whomever they can. When I was living in Denmark I met two gents at a bar who were Americans that had left to evade the draft in the 1960s. They had runaway to Malmö of all places to marry Swedes and eat lingonberry jam for the rest of their lives. So I guess that is my first response: Estonia is not unique. This happens everywhere.

That being said, Estonians are amenable to marriage. They have a liberal, "eh, what the heck" approach to it and see it as a manifestation of romantic love, as opposed to the US where it has been viewed over the past 20 years or so as a phase in life that occurs sometime after a big promotion at work. In the Soviet ice age, Estonians got married young so that they could move out of their parents' homes. These days many still marry young because, "eh, what the heck" coupled sometimes by a loud "oops" and a surge in hormones.

In this context of ladies that aren't afraid to get married and wandering guys that are looking for a place to put down their roots, it shouldn't be surprising that so many foreign guys wash up on Estonian soil. A final factor is that Estonia is 54 percent female and 46 percent male, and of that 46 percent, a good chunk are either drunks or Eurovision fans, leaving the market wide-open for synergistic coupling.

Resolution of the situation and its consequences for European development

In 1330-1340, several nearby and far-away rulers begun to show an interest in Estonia. As we know, Estonia belonged to Denmark at the time. In order to understand the commotion among neighbouring powers, we need to look to Danish history of the period. The kingdom was almost falling apart in the 1330s. Christopher II pawned one domain after another due to huge financial problems. The far-away Duchy of Estonia was also suitable to be offered as security for a loan.

Involved dynasties of Germany, Danmark and Sweden
One of the first suitors of Estonia was Knut Porse, a nobleman who was married to the highly born Ingeborg, daughter of the Norwegian king and widow of the Swedish Duke Erik Magnusson (died in 1318). They had two sons who died in 1350. Ingeborg also had a son from her first marriage, Magnus Eriksson (born 1316) who later became the King of Sweden and Norway. These family relations are significant, because Knut Porse received the Duchy of Estonia as a fiefdom in 1329. He died the next year, in 1330, and left behind an energetic widow and three sons and heirs.

These inheritance relationships probably would not have had any effect on Estonian history, had the situation been peaceful in Denmark. However, in 1331, a battle was fought near Gottorp between Christopher II and Gerhard of Holstein where the king was defeated once again, and the next year he died in disgrace and poverty. Gerhard became the ruler. But that was not all. Namely, as far back as in 1323, Margareta, daughter of the dead king Christopher II, had been betrothed to Ludwig, the Margrave of Brandenburg and son of Ludwig, the German Emperor. The wedding was the next year. This was a very noble marriage and expected to fill the state treasury of Denmark with German riches. But things did not work out that way. First, the promised dowry, 12,000 marks or 2.8 tons of silver, had to be paid to Ludwig. It was well known that the Danish king had no such wealth. Therefore, a number of manors in Estonia were pledged to Ludwig to cover the dowry. This was small comfort to the Margrave. When Chistopher II passed away, Ludwig’s hopes of getting his dowry dwindled to nothing – a fact that must have irritated his father, the German Emperor.

When Christopher II died, he also left a number of heirs. Besides the dowry-less daughter Margareta and her two sisters, there were three sons as well. Erik, the heir to the throne, had also died in 1332 and elder son, Danish Junker Otto, bore the title of the Duke of Estonia. It has been said that Otto took after his father in his character. Thus, in 1333, he handed, with the consent of his younger brother Valdemar, the whole of Estonia over to Margrave Ludwig instead of the dowry and gave up all his rights in the area. Despite that, Valdemar assumed the title of the Heir to the Kingdom of Denmark and the Duchy of Estonia when he became of age in 1338.

As a result, by the end of the 1330s, there were a number of lawful successors laying claim to Estonia: the heirs of Knut Porse, above all Magnus, the young King of Sweden; but also Ludwig, the Margrave of Brandenburg and, first and foremost, Valdemar, the youngest son of Christopher II. Valdemar was raised by the house of the German Emperor and grew up to become a knight in the court of Emperor Ludwig. It seems reasonable to assume that Emperor Ludwig had great influence over Valdemar as a result of his upbringing.

In 1340, the Danes killed the hated Gerhard of Holstein in the castle of Randers and negotiations, conducted by Ludwig, the Margrave of Brandenburg, for the restoration of the Kingdom of Denmark began. The crown was inherited by Valdemar, the youngest son of Christopher II, whose first task was to buy back the pawned country.

beijing2008 - Estonia won 1 Gold /1 Silver

For me every sport person from any country make me feel proud. They all deserve praise and bow. Every athlete works so hard to prove his or herself. From all around world champions participates but the best is honored by gold, silver, bronze medal.

I really liked Estonia as a country. While watching Olympics 2008 live, my family was overwhelmed with the achievement of Estonian athletes. My dad living for 9 years feels this country from heart. I am glad to know employees in his company says " Deo is our Estonian". I am proud of my dad as he speaks and understand Estonian very well despite a very hard language to learn. He was very happy, I can't express that in words. It was the same happiness when he came to know about Abhinav Bindra in shooting, India won gold medal. Today in celebration we ate ice cream, favorite one.

I found every youngster and kid has sporting spirit inside while cycling, skiing, swimming, running and many more. Everyone here are adventurous and less or more have sport attitude. Maximum you will find here are health conscious, this I liked the most.


Estonia is being represented in the Beijing Olympic Games by 47 sportsmen and sportswomen in total of 13 different sporting events.

Recession arrives in Estonia - first of the Baltic states

he Baltic states' economies - last year among Europe's fastest growing - have abruptly gone into reverse and Estonia is already in recession, official figures confirmed yesterday.

The downturn in the three states is a grave blow to their hopes of swiftly catching up with the rest of the European Union. Even Estonia, the richest of the three, still only has a gross domestic product per capita of about three quarters of the EU average. "The key thing is that it's only going to get worse from now on," Neil Shearing of Capital Economics, who forecasts a 2.5 per cent full-year decline in Estonian GDP, said.

The country's economy contracted 0.9 per cent in the second quarter compared to the first, during which there was also a 0.5 per cent quarter-on- quarter decline, according to the statistics office. A recession is defined as two consecutive quarters of negative growth.

Latvia is also poised to enter recession by the end of the year and Lithuanian growth is also slowing sharply, though it is likely to escape recession.

Both in Latvia and Estonia policymakers are now scrambling to revise their economic forecasts downwards and to balance budgets that are set to go into the red because of falling tax revenue. Source

My visit to Altex, Tallinn

My parents want me to be with them in Estonia. I am over with my education and they feel i can get my profile job to work here. So, felt I should try as I see my mom not well and she needs me or my bro (Nirnay pursuing Btech IT) with her.

Estonia is good place peace, purity everything you will find here. But u can't live idle, its too boring. No Indian channels, community its really difficult to plan your day. In weekends I go out for recreation even I joined shaping class but not visit daily. So I think to make yourself busy and easy here, u should have some job or some home creative work.

I started my search by mailing my candidature to reputed companies. I have long list of top 100 companies but very few are in Internet marketing field and Altex is one of them. They called me for interview, i felt honored to get response at least.

I was ready at 10 Am as meet up was scheduled at 3PM, Tallinn. It is approx 2 hours distance from Parnu. It was rainy day, and car driver by mistake filled petrol ( "bensiin" in Estonian that day I came to know). It killed 2 hours waiting for another car from dad company. He(driver) was very upset for his mistake, no problem he is human afterall rite!!!. Anyways he is nice human and perform his duties responsibly.

hmmmmmmmm........ Atlast with the help of GPS (global positioning system which earlier just known the definition saw it in real how it fucntions, found it great :-) ). Reached the complex of Altex Group of 10 people in team were working hard in rented flat. I was so happy to see them and their dedication towards work. Past memory reflashed of 1Softsolution, website development company started with people of 5 in small rented room not even flat... days and night hard work paid 1Soft team...now they have their office in sec 16 and 100 of projects worked world wide and good clientèle.

Heads of Altex they were so kind and nice that all my nervousness was out. All talks was genuine, atlast I am foreigner here.I need work permit!!!! You can visit them and their expertise areas here at their company website but all is in estonian accept this page Internet marketing Agency

Then around 6 PM I had yummy cuisine in Indian restro owned by an Indian owner, Mr Pradeep Gupta. It was beautifully interiored, frankly speaking i liked the service part best. Beautiful english speaking gal wid sparkling dress and bright smile was centre of attraction.
I had there paneer pakora, thai vegetable, veg biryani, naan, cheese naan, panner saag, and juice. I was feeling as if I am in India same taste and flavor.
I came late till 11 PM. overall I slept with good experience and learning.

May be next week i will go again, I am again called by other good company. Will surely share that visit too.. after all they are Estonian companies..
