    We can't judge people based on that. I'm sure there are Estonians that have Russians names(Russafied at some point) but they are still Estonian.

    Please feel free to post some photos from Estonia of ordinary people!

    I don't think it matters which way you spell a name.
    The only Russian I know with that name is Kristina Orbakaite, and she is Jewish Russian and Lithuanian.
    Kristina Šmigun-Vähi is half-Russian

    and the the playboy model is fully Russian.

    Šmigun nor Petina are Estonian surnames. Also Kristina isn't an Estonian name.

    Please don't get angry. I did not start the post for that purpose.
    Since there were no Estonian people threads I thought it would be nice to start one!

    In summer, spring and autumn I try to wear as much colour as possible, but in winter my favourite is definitely black. Although it is summer, I’ll wear black for my school reunion taking place later today. My ultimate favourite designer is Roberto Cavalli.
    Viktoria is definitely very Russian as a name, but I think this girl doesn't look particularly Russian, and not strange for Estonian - in my eyes she could be an ethnic Estonian easily.

    that Kristina named blonde however looked very Russian

    And I think in Talvi's post about families it's quite clear what I meant when i said in another thread that the men are quite manly/opposite of metrosexual in Estonia in general. Women are very feminine and the men are quite masculine, often that same hair-do and same kind of appearance. Where as in Finland everything is so overly equal that women are ashamed to dress very feminine (not to get labelled) and are overshadowed in general by Estonian girls but at least the young men are definitely more "metrosexual" in my opinion than in Estonia. In Sweden on the other hand women are a bit more feminine than Finland (maybe less than Estonia), but men are way more metrosexual than Finland.

    Just my observations, hope nobody gets offended.
