Desperately looking for a replacement for ANNIKA I stumbled upon this series..Born in Germany to Russian/German parents with connections to Poland, I find this extremely appealing. Also, living on the Rocky Mountains for 50+ years, I thoroughly enjoy the elegic and familiar countryside of the Baltic Sea. - continuity between seasons is kind of lacking, but still an extremely worthwhile series Love it! The countryside reminds of of the book: "Before the feast"- "Vor dem Fest" by Sasha Stanisic(in German) it absolutely captures this specific and elgic countryside.(the fox) Thank you PBS Montana!
