Hello all! My name is Kalev Pääsuke, and I am the national representative of Estonia.

The chief goal of this little project is international outreach - to broaden my horizons and make connections outside of that which I am familiar; I intend to accomplish this by allowing others to ask questions about myself and my nation, as well as its history and culture.

I am thrilled to be here, and I hope that you will stop by soon.

Note: the mun of this blog - me - is American, however, I am really interested in Estonian history, culture, and language. As such I'll do my best to be respectful of it. That said if ever I get anything wrong, quickly shoot me a dm and let me know. We'll get it sorted out.

the beau valon regatta is held in august from the 25th to the 27th!

ahh! we definitely should have a beach day sometime! we can have a swim competition of our own — or just a fun swim meet (*^^*) !!

whenever you’re down for the tour, i’m down! i love to show off my culture and beaches; i’m a bit of a bragger, heh!

@ask-hws-america :

Hey, Sey! (haha, it rhymes 😁)

Just wanted to ask! Do you have any unique holidays?

america! hello! (^｡^)

here, we have a few unique holidays! there are lots of carnivals, including the international carnival of victoria! this carnival is thrown in the spring to celebrate the creole culture here as well as other cultural influences! it’s a lot of fun, lots of dancing, good food, and there’s even a pageant!

not to mention the beau valon regatta! this also has a pageant, but it mostly comprises of yacht racing and swim competitions! i love the swim competitions a lot; they’re so much fun!

ヽ(^o^) thank you for reaching out! you should come visit sometime!!! i’ll give you the best tour!!!!

I went to a Vietnamese New Year Festival! They had these colorful dragon dudes walking around all bouncy-like, and one passed by while I was in the food court, so I said, "Hey! Can I take a picture?" and he came right up to me!! Like, right in my FACE!! 🤩🤩🤩

I tried to draw him, but he's REEEAAL detailed, so I dunno if I did him justice. Definitely cooler in real life.

You guys probably wanna know what I ate:

Sooo, I went for the sweets first, surprising absolutely no one, and found steamed tapioca layered cakes. They were kinda coconutty! Soft and chewy. Delicious!

Then I bought soy pudding with ginger. It was pretty good! I was glad for the warmth on a cool day.

After that, I started craving some meat and got sugarcane shrimp skewers – not just savory, but sweet, too! And SOOO good. I want more already. I could suck on that sugarcane all day. Mm! 😩 Vietnam was looking at me kinda weird, though. I may have been a LITTLE messy. Hey, don't judge! I cleaned up after myself!

Finally, I got some sesame balls with red bean paste! Man, I love that stuff. I've had it a million times before at Japan and China's houses and couldn't resist the chance to get it again.

today felt like a good beach day (*'▽'*) ~~ here are some of the photos i took! drawing spirals in the sand is surprisingly relaxing.

Are there any interesting animals endemic to your place?

ouias! here are two animals that i love endemic to seychelles:

the seychelles fody!

this bird is a small yellow-ish bird native to the islands of cousin, cousine, & frégate! however, they’ve been introduced to our other islands as well. they live more naturally in woodlands but have adopted to living in other environments.

the seychelles fruitbat!

this bag eats fruits, nectars, and pollen! they’re a big help to the ecosystems of my islands because they disperse seeds everywhere! they are particularly loud when feeding and can fly from island to island! they’re also extremely cute :] i adore them!

Would you be friends with Floptropica if she were a real nation?

☆〜（ゝ。∂）thank you for the ask!

i’d love to be friends with floptropica! i feel like she would be a cool nation at any rate! plus, she’s an island nation like mee :3 we’ve already got much in common!

[ask-aphseychelles]

c’est pas de problème! i’m always happy to help, monsieur dylan ^_^!

bonjour-hi! i’d like to answer monsieur dillan’s question (^_^) so!!

“your flop era” = a low period in your life where you’re “flopping”; basically, not doing as well as you’d like. “lowkey” = slightly, or even secretly, but definitely on a small scale in comparison to whatever you’re doing! “serving” = this is positive, très bien! to serve is to look good, do good, feel good.. if you are serving, then it’s very good. similar to “you ate”.

altogether: “your flop era is lowkey serving” means that your low period is still kind of good!

（╹◡╹）i hope i was able to help! — @ask-aphseychelles

Oh, that's actually very helpful! Thank you, Miss Seychelles. It's nice to know what that means. I feel honored being called "Monsieur Dillan", too. Thank you again, Miss Seychelles!

( i like to think seychelles is really into online cultures & slang; she definitely has aesthetic tiktok & instagram accounts, in my mind.. lots of pretty scenery pics on her insta and then she’ll drop the occasional RLLY pretty selfie lol. )

( also, i think she’d use a lot of emoticons & cute emojis. just a girl having fun )

🇸🇨 salut! my name is michelle mancham and i am the beautiful country of seychelles! welcome to my blog!

an island girl with a big heart, miss michelle enjoys her own beaches and aquatic life very much! she struggles with cooking but adores seafood & is always open to trying new things. she loves beauty, especially natural beauty. her birthday is june 29th. despite not being a particularly popular country, she’s very outgoing. as kind as mancham can be, she can also be stubborn and childish. she can be sassy, especially when provoked.

michelle presents as a young woman between 18-21.

she can sing and dance very well! though, she finds herself shy about her singing. she enjoys reading and playing football/soccer. miss mancham is also a strong swimmer.

she can speak french & english ( as can mun! )

further characterization coming soon!

mun is an adult that goes by amelia! everyone is free to interact but mun would prefer to keep shipping between adult muns & adult characters.

ooc text will be formatted like so: ( this is out of character! ). note the spacing!

i fllw from @worldstarrs!

mun is fine with nsfw as long as everyone involved is of age! flirting is fine, but please ask before totally jumping to shipping. on that note, “crackships” & random pairs are encouraged :] mun likes silly pairings

mun is a black american; she knows a bit about seychelles’ history, but obviously not as much as someone from seychelles would. keep this in mind!
