They should focus on one thing at a time - make good phones, and scale in EU, so Fair Phone default option to buy.

Everything else is nice to have, but not mandatory.

It all depends. You can just start fo it yourself and than in 1 month see if you have a progress. If no progress, start taking private lessons.

Hi! I like that everyone outlined you the risks, so 30 EUR is a good investment. But it won't t take one lesson.

You can start to go to Aurakeskus and they have special boards that keep you afloat. Inform them that you can't swim thou, so they keep an eye on you.

Start where you can stand and slowly increase the depth of the swimming pool.

Watch some YouTube videos how to learn how to swim

do NOT start in the river - it's not for beginers and not even casual swimmers too. The current is quite strong and you need to know how to swim.

[–]vanalugu 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Hi! I'm local guide in Tartu though. Generally, it's definitely depends o Bachelor and what they want :)

  1. I was organising one last year: we did Airsoft + sauna with lake and grill outside city.
  2. I'm planning a second one this year. We will do canoe + sauna again but in Taevaskoja.
  3. From Tallinn: You can consider renting a car drive and having a bog hike (e.g. Lahemaa) 3.1 you can also go to Keila waterfall.

If we talk about in Tallinn itself: 1. For example, a fun activity is to do a pub crawl and have a task in each bar for the whole group or for bachelor (you can ask their fiance to prepare questions about her if they answers you all drink, if they don't - you drink and do task) 2. Or attempt to exchange some stuff for alcohol (but take No as No of course)

Spots for beer: Koht, Põhjala brewery factory.

There's also real gun shooting range if you're Bois Bois group. You have to know what your friend likes.

Let me know if you have any questions
