You’re living in one of Europe’s oldest university towns, where half the people you pass on the street are students and the rest are probably teaching them. Your walk to class might take you along the Emajõgi River or through a cobblestone square with medieval architecture. Tartu is known as the City of Youth: compact, creative, curious, and always buzzing with student life. On any given week you might end up at a bog hike, an international food night, or an underground DJ. With free public Wi-Fi across town and a government that votes online, you’re in the middle of one of the most digitally advanced societies in the world, but one that’s deeply proud of its forests, folklore, and language.
