Greetings from Estonia!

My semester at the University of Tartu as part of the academic mobility program is almost over, and I want to share my impressions and some news.
I’ll start with the more formal part — studying. For the first time in my life, I had exams in a lecture hall, and I also took an oral exam in English. The most important task in the exam is to pass it.
