Resumo: The county contains large deposits of oil shale - the main mineral mined in Estonia. As oil shale is used in thermal power plants, the earth literally holds the largest power capacity in Estonia. Though the town situates in the middle of the county, it is exceptional in the area due to majority of Estonians living there. It has a population of 629 (2006) and an area of 270 km².
It is a very small town; there is a lack of bus services, which means you always have to consider bus times. The city is far from big cities, is a very beautiful in terms of its nature, there is a beautiful landscape and the Lake is only 16km away.

The population however, is relatively unactive, initiative to organize cultural events together as one community rarely takes place. However, participation in events organized by other people inside the community is common. And when the event is organised together as one community (Orphanage, School, Nursery and volunteers) the people of the town have shown a big interest in the events and activities.

The climate in Estonia varies, the summer’s (June to August) are warm usually ranging between 10-28C, Some years even reaching up to 30-35C. Autumn (September-November) is a rainy season and relatively cold and windy, winter’s (December-February) allow plenty of snow fall and quite cold weather, usually between 5 to -25C. In spring time (March to May) it’s sunny but relatively cold. The weather is not very reliable and often it is warm and sunny one day and the next day will be raining and cold.

Living and working with us, the volunteer can always count on our assistance and we will help with clothes and other necessities
Whilst working with our organisation we provide the apartment (living room, kitchen, toilet and bathroom). The volunteer can spend their spare time in the apartment as long as they follow the rules and regulations of any rental accommodation agreement.

As the town is a rather small community, then EVS volunteers work will be connected with all community and most likely will directly or indirectly influence majority of the population.
Volunteer will work with 2 different target groups:
- children and young people in the Orphanage, children in the kindergarden
- youngsters in the local school
Working in the orphanage the volunteer has a wonderful opportunity to work with children of different ages ranging form 1-16.Different activities on different days allow something new and interesting every day.

The volunteer can help the instructor with the children’s homework and doing activities with the children. There will always be a worker to help the volunteer and tell them what to do when needed.
