To celebrate International Women's Day 2021, we are delighted to be joined by Helle Patterson, one of the most interesting and fascinating person we have ever spoke to. Her stories of living under both Stalin's and Hitler's rule in her homeland of Estonia are thrillingly gripping, amplifying her sense of good will and strong character through moments of humour throughout. Any description would serve as an injustice to the true meaning and heart of her memories , so sit back, relax and listen to the captivating tales of Helle's childhood. Enjoy!
