Orissaare Videos

Driving on Saaremaa roads in Estonia

14.08.2010 on Saaremaa island, Estonia. I made three videos with just driving on the roads, radio playing, that's the second one. As Estonians can hear and understand the very moment: there was a song playing in our national radio station Vikerraadio and they sing there that the best place to be in summertime is only Saaremaa! I asked from the driver, my colleague, how did they in Vikerraadio know that we are in Saaremaa at the moment. By the way, with direct translation Saaremaa means 'island-land'. Yea, those three days were my first ever in Saaremaa so maybe I was a bit too excited about all that, hence this video.

Welcome to the Eastern Saaremaa

The Eastern Saaremaa is a good recreation place with unique nature and a lot of sights.
