Tandem camp based on Oskar Luts’ Paunvere stories (in Jõgevamaa)

Near Palamuse

Everyone is welcome to take part in this three-day language-learning camp being held near Palamuse, the setting for classic Estonian author Oskar Luts’ ground-breaking novel Spring. Both those who speak Estonian as their first language and those who are fluent in English are welcome to participate if they are interested in both teaching and learning their languages by way of fun activities and get-togethers.
