[2/2] Seto Museum of Farming keeps live animals, but due to the spread of foot-and-mouth disease across Europe visiting the animal barn isn’t currently possible; we nevertheless admired the traditional stick fences (📷1). For lunch we enjoyed a hearty Seto variant of goulash soup with an unexpectedly soft and flavourful dark bread at the farm’s restaurant (📷2). In normal times you can drive from this recreation of a wealthy 1920s farm to Saatse Seto Museum, uniquely passing through Russian Federation territory without a visa—providing you don’t stop. These are not normal times, however, and although the detour fully within Estonia is only 22 min, that museum was closed (📷3). Instead we continued south, gaining a view of the 🛂 border crossing at Koidula and across the rail tracks into forested Russian territory, to Obinitsa. Obinitsa Muuseum | Obinitsa Museum hosts an exhibition on the “Life and Songs of Seto Women” (📷4). Setos are a Finnic people and linguistic minority, historically Orthodox Christians; their polyphonic singing or “leelo” is UNESCO-listed as Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity. 🇪🇪 #europe #baltics #estonia #eesti 🚀 #travel 🚐 #camperVan #nomad #roadTrip #vanLife 🌍 #unesco
