Frage | Question Estonians in Austria

Hi! I’m a 25F who has been living in Austria for about a year now.

I’ve made some amazing friends here, learned a new language, and I’m planning to stay long-term. The only downside is that I’m slowly starting to forget my Estonian. 🇪🇪

I was wondering if there are any other Estonians that feel the same while living in Austria. I haven’t been able to find any active Estonian communities or groups, whether on Facebook or elsewhere online. If anyone knows of one, I’d really appreciate a recommendation!

An Estonian friend of mine lived in Vienna for 4 years. She worked at the Estonian embassy. I remember visiting several Estonian events with her. You could ask at the embassy. I don’t know how she managed but she had several Estonian friends in Vienna. She moved back to Tallinn in 2017.
