During his time in Estonia, Chicago Eesti Maja member Liam Kivirist had the incredible opportunity to participate in the “Back to Our Roots Youth Exchange”, which brings people of Estonian descent from around the world to join locals on a 10-day adventure around the country, experiencing Estonian culture and exploring the topic of migration.
