My Experience as a Foreign Estonian

In the twenty-first episode of Tiksu to UniTartu, brothers Sten and Thomas Tolgu — a foreign Estonian alumnus and a current student at the University of Tartu — share their story of reconnecting with their roots through studying and living in Estonia. Raised in the United States with an Estonian mother and British father, they reflect on their family heritage, Estonian traditions, and what it’s like to study at UT. They also talk about their experience in the Estonian military and offer practical tips for other foreigners navigating life here. Curious about Estonia through the eyes of foreign Estonians?
