Evidently, Esmeralda liked to run around naked and her goat liked to help her fold the laundry.

I was very close to going to the 2019 Viljandi Folk Music Festival in Estonia. I had a photo pass and everything, but getting there from Tallinn via public transportation looked like a nightmare. I was going to waste most of my two days in Estonia traveling to and from the festival and not get to explore Tallinn. So I skipped the festival but was able to hear a bit of folk music at the Estonian Open Air Museum.
