They have all lived in 108 Hirsjärvi & Hurme 2006, 149–152. 109 Ibid, 145-146. the Soviet Estonia and seen how Estonia became independent again in August 1991. Since Estonia‟s independence, there has been going on economic and political changes which have affected peoples‟ everyday lives in Estonia. Estonia‟s EU membership has been a part of this process, even some kind of conclusion of the process of becoming a part of “the West” or Europe again. Besides of the age, there are also other differences, for example occupation. Six of my eight informants are currently working in the social- and health care sectors but in various occupations and have different educational backgrounds from psychologist to home aid and cleaning. One is a school assistant and one is a pensioner but worked before as a nurse. Thus their occupations are quite typical professions for women and also working environments at their work places are dominated by women. Also family situations vary. Three of them moved to Finland with their family, two with their husband and children and one with her mother. Two of my informants moved alone for work but one of those got married in Finland with Finnish-Swedish man and started a family. The last three moved also alone for work but they have or had children and/or husband in Estonia. These dissimilarities have some influence on their lives in Finland as well. Some of them are planning to stay permanently in Finland whereas some are only earning money in Finland to benefit their families at home.
