Hi, I’m Alfred Sontag, a 17-year-old student from Germany. As part of my
exchange year with Youth For Understanding (YFU) in school year 2024/25, I
have been given the opportunity to spend a year abroad and experience life
in Estonia.

What’s this blog about?

On this website, you’ll find stories and insights into my daily life as an
exchange student. From navigating cultural differences to making new
friends, I’ll be sharing my thoughts and experiences on everything from
school to hobbies and everyday life in Estonia.

I’m grateful for the support of YFU Germany and YFU Estonia, which
have made it possible for me to take this incredible journey.

What can you expect?

* Regular updates on my adventures and misadventures
* Insights into Estonian culture, traditions, and daily life
* Photos and videos from around Estonia
* Reflections on the challenges and benefits of being an exchange student

So, sit back, relax, and join me on this journey through Estonia! I’m
excited to share my experiences with you and hope that they’ll inspire you
to take your own adventures.
